Use MEDICA’s 2026 product groups to separate buying decisions
| Research track | How to shortlist | Meeting preparation |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical diagnostics and therapeutic technologies | Device application and intended market | Ask the supplier for market-specific documentation and service arrangements. |
| Digital medicine, data and AI | A defined clinical or operational workflow | Prepare integration, data-handling and implementation questions. |
| Integrated care, rehabilitation and homecare | Care setting and daily users | Compare training, maintenance and support needs. |
| Healthcare infrastructure, manufacturing and quality | Facility, production or quality requirement | Identify technical owners and ask for the relevant specifications. |
| Healthcare systems, education and global health | Institutional or programme objective | Clarify the partnership model and implementation responsibilities. |
Pro Tip: Give each colleague a distinct research question from the table. Use the same comparison criteria across competing suppliers so that the team can make a decision after the event.

Questions to prepare before your meetings
| Meeting counterpart | Question to resolve | Useful next step |
|---|---|---|
| Distributor | Which markets and service models can your team support? | Market-specific commercial and documentation follow-up |
| Hospital or care organization | What changes are required in our existing workflow and systems? | Scoped technical discussion with deployment owners |
| Manufacturing partner | Which specifications, quality requirements and volumes define a viable project? | Documented feasibility review |
A useful meeting ends with an agreed action: a technical review, a sample request, a partner conversation or a scoped evaluation. Record who owns that action and which question is still unanswered.
A practical visit plan
| Stage | Recommended action |
|---|---|
| Before Düsseldorf | Choose one buying objective per research track. Identify who will assess commercial, technical and service fit. |
| First visit block | Use the official exhibitor index to compare candidates within the same product group. |
| Second visit block | Arrange deeper demonstrations with technical colleagues and record unresolved requirements. |
| After the show | Ask suppliers to substantiate claims with the documents relevant to your intended market and use case. |
Pro Tip: Leave gaps between appointments and reconfirm the exact meeting location. A directory listing is a research starting point; it is not a booked meeting.
