**Editor’s Note:** The Vietnam Medi-Pharm Expo 2026 returns to Ho Chi Minh City from July 30 to August 1, continuing its legacy as a key platform for global and domestic leaders in pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, and healthcare.
The Vietnam Medi-Pharm Expo 2026 will take place from July 30 to August 1, 2026, at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC) in Ho Chi Minh City. Building on the success of its 23 previous editions, this exhibition remains a premier meeting place for national and international players in the pharmaceutical, medical equipment, and healthcare sectors, thereby contributing to the promotion of trade exchanges, technology transfers, and the development of cooperation in the healthcare industry.
The Vietnamese pharmaceutical sector benefits from numerous development opportunities due to the growing demand for healthcare, digital transformation, and technological innovations in production, diagnosis, and treatment. However, requirements regarding product quality, governance standards, and sustainable development also pose significant challenges for companies in the sector.
In this context, the expo reaffirms its role as a specialized trade forum, where companies can learn about the latest trends, access cutting-edge technologies, and establish contacts with manufacturers, distributors, hospitals, medical facilities, research institutes, and national and international partners. Beyond showcasing products and technologies, the exhibition also helps promote technology transfer, develop supply chains, and strengthen international cooperation.
The 24th International Medical and Pharmaceutical Exhibition will feature thousands of products, technologies, and solutions in the fields of pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, hospital equipment, laboratory equipment, dentistry, rehabilitation, dietary supplements, cosmetics, raw materials, and pharmaceutical manufacturing machinery.
In addition to Vietnamese companies, the exhibition also presents numerous international brands from China, South Korea, India, Malaysia, Singapore, and many other markets. The presence of domestic and foreign companies creates a multinational business environment, offering opportunities for cooperation, investment, and technology transfer for the Vietnamese pharmaceutical industry.
A highlight is its international thematic space dedicated to pharmaceutical raw materials, and another dedicated to pharmaceutical processing technologies and equipment. Co-organized by relevant bodies, this space highlights raw materials, excipients, natural extracts, active pharmaceutical ingredients, as well as production lines, equipment, and modern pharmaceutical technologies.
As Vietnam’s healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors enter a period of strong development, marked by increasing demand for technological innovation, improved healthcare service quality, and sustainable development, trade exchanges, technology transfer, and international cooperation become important growth drivers for the entire industry.
This platform connects global suppliers with pharmaceutical, functional food, and healthcare companies in Vietnam, while facilitating access to new technologies, modernization of production lines, partner search, and development of cooperation within the pharmaceutical supply chain.
The exhibition’s highlights include a series of specialized seminars dedicated to the development of Vietnamese medicinal plants, legal risk management in accordance with Decree 90/2026/ND-CP, and ESG practices in the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors. New product and technology presentation programs, as well as forums between national and international companies, are also offered to help them stay informed about market trends and enhance their competitiveness.
The expo continues to affirm its position as a specialized and prestigious exhibition for the medical and pharmaceutical industry.
With 11,000 m² of exhibition space, 380 booths, 350 companies from 15 countries and territories, it confirms its role as an effective gateway between Vietnamese companies and the international healthcare community.
