The best MEDICA visits are planned before you land. Decide what you want to find, book your key meetings in advance and leave room for discoveries. Here is a simple four-day plan you can adapt.
Before the fair
- Write down your goals. For example: three new instrument suppliers, two OEM partners, prices for one product line.
- Use the online exhibitor search to build a shortlist.
- Email the companies on your shortlist and book meetings.
- Download the MEDICA app and save your stands.
Day 1: Monday 16 November
- Morning: Pick up your bearings. Walk the halls in your main product area.
- Afternoon: First booked meetings. Collect catalogues and price lists.
- Evening: Review notes and adjust your plan.
Day 2: Tuesday 17 November
- Morning: Your most important meetings, while everyone is fresh.
- Afternoon: Visit country pavilions and new exhibitors.
- Evening: Business dinners with suppliers.
Day 3: Wednesday 18 November

- Afternoon: Second meetings with your top suppliers to discuss samples and prices.
Day 4: Thursday 19 November (open until 16:00)
