This September, the medtech world turns its focus to Lucerne for Swiss Medtech Expo 2025, taking place between September 9–10 at Messe Luzern. What can you expect to see there?
The Swiss Medtech Expo is not just a trade fair. It’s where the Swiss medtech industry connects, collaborates, and plans for the future.
As the premier trade fair for medical technology in Switzerland, the event offers a clear view of how cutting-edge developments are being translated into practice across the full medtech value chain - from materials and production to smart design and sustainability.
With 200 exhibitors, 4,000 visitors, and 40+ expert presentations, the event offers two days of deep insight and targeted networking.
