Quick checklist for your participation
Taking part in a medical or healthcare trade show requires meticulous preparation. Unlike other industries, attendees here are usually highly specialized professionals—such as doctors, pharmacists, researchers, or hospital executives—so every detail matters when it comes to conveying trust, innovation, and professionalism.
-
Booth reservation: At major healthcare trade shows—such as Infarma, Expodental, Farmaforum, or the ESMO Congress—the most visible spaces are booked far in advance. Secure your location 8 to 10 months ahead to ensure a strategic spot within the exhibition hall (for example, near main aisles or conference areas).
-
Booth provider: Not all booth builders are familiar with the specific requirements of the healthcare sector. It’s essential to work with a team that understands the protocols, regulations, and technical language of medical trade shows.
At Servis, we’ve been collaborating with exhibitors in this field for decades, delivering booths that combine design, functionality, and regulatory compliance to ensure your participation is both seamless and successful.
-
Operations: Carefully review the event’s logistical requirements: loading access, power capacity, height limits, handling areas, storage conditions, and setup schedules. At medical trade shows, these factors are often strictly regulated for safety and hygiene reasons, so precise planning will help prevent last-minute issues.
-
Sustainability: The healthcare industry is progressively adopting sustainability and environmental responsibility standards. Choose reusable modular structures, interchangeable graphics, and recyclable materials (such as aluminum, fabric, or reinforced cardboard panels). In addition to reducing waste, you’ll project a brand image aligned with the current values of the healthcare industry.
-
Lead generation: Prepare a digital lead capture system and a clear follow-up script to qualify contacts effectively.
-
Post-show: Success is measured after the event. Schedule follow-up within 72 hours: send a personalized email, provide additional technical materials, or arrange a demo call. Prompt, professional communication reinforces the impression visitors had of your booth and maximizes your return on investment.
