Nanjing to Host Major Medical Device Expos in 2027

Nanjing, a vital medical hub in the Yangtze River Delta, is set to welcome two landmark medical device exhibitions in 2027, offering a high-value trading and communication platform for domestic and global healthcare manufacturers, distributors, hospital purchasers and research institutions.

The 24th China International Clinical Laboratory Medicine and Blood Transfusion Instruments & Reagents Expo (CACLP 2027) will take place from March 19 to 21 at Nanjing International Expo Center. Widely recognised as Asia’s premier IVD industry event, CACLP gathers the complete in-vitro diagnostic industrial chain. Exhibits cover clinical testing instruments, diagnostic reagents, raw materials, core components, POCT solutions, pathological equipment and blood transfusion technology. More than 1,200 enterprises from over 20 countries and regions are expected to participate, attracting tens of thousands of professional visitors including laboratory directors, third-party lab operators and international trading partners. Alongside the exhibition, a series of academic summits and technical seminars will explore hot topics such as molecular diagnosis, intelligent laboratory construction and global IVD market access regulations.

Following closely, the 29th China International Medical Device (Jiangsu) Expo will open from May 22 to 24 at the same venue. As East China’s long-standing comprehensive medical equipment fair, it spans medical imaging, surgical equipment, hospital consumables, rehabilitation aids, home healthcare devices and smart medical solutions. Rooted in Jiangsu and radiating the whole Yangtze River Delta, the expo focuses on matching local hospital procurement demands with manufacturers. It serves as an ideal channel for brands to expand markets across Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang and Shandong.

Industry analysts point out that Nanjing’s location strengthens its advantage as a meeting point for China’s domestic circulation and international medical trade. Supported by continuous policy promotion of the Healthy China initiative, Chinese medical device enterprises are accelerating innovation and global layout. These two expos will not only showcase cutting-edge medical technologies but also facilitate supply-demand docking, cross-border cooperation and information exchange on registration, certification and overseas market expansion.

For overseas suppliers and trading companies, the two events provide direct access to East China’s massive healthcare market. Pre-registration for professional visitors will be launched months in advance. Market participants advise enterprises to arrange schedules properly, seize opportunities to launch new products, negotiate distribution partnerships and keep track of the latest trends in clinical demand and industry supervision.
