The medical industry will meet in Poznań in a new format (19–20 May 2026, Poznań Congress Center)
Registration has officially opened for the International Trade Fair of Medical Equipment and Instruments Salmed Connect 2026, taking place on 19–20 May 2026 at the Poznań Congress Center. This year’s edition will be held in a refreshed format, designed to respond to the dynamic changes in the healthcare sector and the growing importance of collaboration between business, medicine, and technology.
For years, Salmed Connect has been one of the key events in the Polish medical industry calendar, consistently strengthening its position as a meeting point for manufacturers, technology providers, and healthcare professionals. The new concept further develops this direction, placing even greater emphasis on dialogue, knowledge exchange, and practical approaches to the challenges faced by modern healthcare facilities.
A central element of the event remains the extensive exhibition area, where modern technologies, medical equipment, and digital solutions supporting healthcare facilities will be showcased. The functional space of the Poznań Congress Center will foster effective business meetings, enabling direct interaction between manufacturers, technology providers, and healthcare management professionals.
An important pillar of Salmed Connect 2026 will be its comprehensive conference programme, developed in cooperation with industry partners and experts. The agenda will focus on current systemic and organizational challenges, with particular emphasis on practical aspects of healthcare operations.
Key topics will include:
- hospital safety in the context of today’s challenges,
- the use of artificial intelligence in procurement processes,
- the selection of medical equipment and materials,
- the future directions of technology and its impact on hospital operations
The programme will also feature discussions on the practical implementation of new technologies. Experts and healthcare managers will share their experiences of moving from identified needs to fully operational solutions, addressing challenges such as system integration, organizational barriers, workforce limitations, and adapting technology to real-life clinical environments.
Additional topics will cover regulatory aspects of the medical devices market, interdisciplinary approaches to diagnostics and treatment, as well as healthcare management. Particular attention will be given to investments, innovation, and the functioning of healthcare systems in Poland and globally, as well as the development of patient-friendly medical facilities.
The event will also provide space for discussions on the role of knowledge and collaboration across different professional groups – from scientists and laboratory specialists to clinicians, managers, and policymakers shaping the future of healthcare.
Salmed Connect 2026 is a business- and expert-oriented event, attracting professionals responsible for purchasing decisions, technology implementation, and healthcare management. Its participant structure creates a strong environment for building valuable relationships and engaging in discussions that have a real impact on the development of the healthcare sector.
This new edition is not only about showcasing market offerings, but above all about creating a platform for dialogue between business, medicine, and technology – a space for exchanging knowledge, sharing experiences, and initiating meaningful cooperation.
