(Dubai,
UAE) -
His Highness Sheikh Ahmed
bin Saeed Al Maktoum,
President of Dubai Civil
Aviation Authority, Chairman
of Dubai Airports and
Chairman and Chief Executive
of Emirates Airline and
Group,
recently opened
Arab Health and
Medlab Middle East
Exhibition and Congress 2021
in Dubai, UAE. The event
runs from 21-24 June 2021.
Under
the show theme of ‘United by
business, driving the
industry forward’, the
co-located events will
welcome more than 20,000
attendees during the
four-day healthcare and
laboratory showcases, which
take place at the Dubai
World Trade Centre.
A total
of 1,500 exhibitors from 62
countries will be present
showcasing the latest
innovation and new
technology as the healthcare
sector bounces back
following the challenges of
COVID-19.
Commenting
on the opening of the
exhibition, Wouter Molman,
Executive Vice President for
Informa Markets, said: “As
the largest exhibitions for
the healthcare and
laboratory industry in the
MENA region, we have an
integral role to play in
developing the healthcare
sector at both a regional
level and also globally.
“Last year, Arab Health
and Medlab Middle East
generated more than AED 3.7
billion worth of business
during the 2020 edition of
the show, denoting a 3.7%
year-on-year increase. The
exhibitions also contributed
millions to the Dubai
economy through direct and
indirect spending from
visitors and exhibitors.
“The past 18 months have
impacted every sector of
business in the world, none
more so than the healthcare
industry. Having the
opportunity to return to a
live, in-person event will
be instrumental in
supporting recovery.”
Companies showcasing
their latest innovations,
including Arab Health's
official artificial
intelligence (AI) partner
Canon Medical, the event's
official AI sponsor, will
highlight a range of
solutions, including a new
Automation Platform for HIT,
the latest ultrasound
technologies, and the
company’s Advanced
Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine
for both CT and MR.
Kentaro Suzuki, Medical
Division Manager, Canon

Medical will continue to
invest in the UAE and the
Middle East, as it is a key
region for our business, and
we have already built a
range of important
and high-profile
partnerships in the region.
“Participants who
attend Arab Health will get
to see firsthand the
evolution of diagnostic
imaging technologies.
Nothing matches the
experience of exploring
these innovations up close
and personal, which is why
we are proud to be leading a
range of live demonstrations
that will showcase the
productivity, operational,
and workflow benefits of our
solutions.
“Last but
not least, on behalf of
Canon Medical, we would like
to thank the UAE Government
for controlling the pandemic
and making the UAE one of
the safest countries in the
world to live.”
