Background
Saudi Arabia, once again, is going to host the Global Health Exhibition in October as the country keeps strengthening its healthcare sector by attracting global investment. The event supports the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 Health Sector Transformation Program and has become one of the fastest-growing healthcare exhibitions in the world.
The exhibition, organised by Tahaluf under the patronage of the Ministry of Health, recorded more than 131,000 attendees in 2025. During last year’s event, healthcare agreements worth more than $35.5 billion were signed across hospital infrastructure, life sciences, digital health and international healthcare partnerships.
Health Minister Fahad bin Abdulrahman Aljalajel said Saudi Arabia has become a major healthcare market and a suitable destination for a global healthcare exhibition. Eli Lilly Saudi Arabia also described last year’s event as an important opportunity to strengthen industry partnerships.
This year’s exhibition will introduce three new clinical zones covering dentistry, orthopaedics and rehabilitation, and dermatology and aesthetics.
Several new programmes have also been added. Capital Xchange will connect investors, businesses and startups through meetings, site visits and investment sessions. The NextGen Pitch Competition will bring together 54 healthcare startups and scaleups to present innovations in digital health, artificial intelligence, life sciences and medical technology. A new Leaders Club 100 will provide private networking opportunities for government officials, business leaders and senior executives.
The exhibition will also launch Pulse Studio, a live podcast platform featuring interviews with healthcare leaders.
Organisers said the new programmes are designed to encourage year-round collaboration among healthcare companies, investors and innovators while supporting the development of stronger healthcare systems.
