The World Health Expo (hereinafter referred to as the Health Expo), which has been successfully held for five consecutive times since 2019, will kick off again at the Wuhan International Expo Center on World Health Day, April 7 this year, and will last for four days. On March 18, the Organizing Committee of the Health Expo held a press conference in Beijing and stated that the 2024 Health Expo will strengthen professionalism and integration in the planning and layout of the exhibition hall, and will focus on "marketization" in terms of event content setting.

 

The 2024 Health Expo with the theme of "Healthy Community, Science and Technology Creates the Future" is jointly sponsored by the Chu Business Association of Hubei Province, the Chinese Association of Preventive Medicine, the China Health Management Association, the China Rehabilitation Assistive Devices Association, and the China Pharmaceutical Business Association. The exhibition area is 100,000 square meters, with a total of 10 venues and more than 1,000 exhibitors, covering the upstream and downstream of the entire health industry chain such as biomedicine, medical equipment, rehabilitation aids, pharmaceutical distribution, traditional Chinese medicine, health food, and health services.

 

Chen Dongsheng, director of the World Health Expo Organizing Committee and president of Chu Business Association of Hubei Province, introduced that the 2024 Health Expo will focus on five aspects: The first is to focus on the development of the big health industry and focus on the integration of the entire chain; the second is to focus on new productivity, and a batch of "new brands, new standards, and new achievements" (hereinafter referred to as the "three new") products will be unveiled; The third is to focus on forward-looking research such as medical big data empowering AI diagnosis and treatment, medical and industrial integration to solve the "stuck neck project", and build an industry exchange platform; The fourth is to focus on international exchanges and cooperation in the field of life and health and create a global exchange platform for the health industry; the fifth is to focus on overseas market demand and help China's products in the general health field accelerate their pace of overseas expansion.

 

Regarding the "Three New" release and promotion conference held during the 2024 Health Expo, Zhou Hua, vice president and secretary-general of the China Health Management Association, introduced, with the continuous advancement of science and technology and the increasing health awareness of consumers, the general health industry is ushering in unprecedented development opportunities. The continuous emergence of new brands, new standards, and new achievements not only injects new vitality into the industry, but also creates new opportunities for consumers. Provides investors with more diversified and higher-quality choices. However, due to information asymmetry within the industry, excellent innovation cases and results are often difficult to fully display and promote. The 2024 Health Expo will provide them with a showcase. At this Health Expo, the China Health Management Association, together with the Hubei Provincial Health Commission and the Hubei Provincial Chu Merchants Federation, will jointly hold the 2024 "Three New" release and promotion conference, and at the same time launch a new round of "Three New" case collection activities for the whole society.

 

The planning and layout of the exhibition emphasizes two key words - professionalism and integration, that is, according to the composition of the comprehensive health industry chain, more focus is placed on professional fields, and the organic integration of relevant fields of the comprehensive health industry to promote and assist each other.

 

The emphasis on "marketization" in terms of activity content refers to the fact that the 2024 Health Expo will be market-oriented and transform from scale to quality; On the other hand, it refers to helping companies find the right market through a series of activities and gain real "positive feedback" from the market through participation in exhibitions.
