Registration is now open for the Global Health Exhibition (GHE) 2026, which will take place from 26–29 October 2026 at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Centre under the patronage of the Ministry of Health and with support from Vision 2030 and the KSA Health Sector Transformation Program.

This year, GHE is expanding with three new specialist zones: Dermatology & Aesthetics, Orthopaedics & Rehabilitation, and Dental. These sectors represent rapidly growing markets in Saudi Arabia, creating new opportunities for exhibitors, healthcare providers, and industry stakeholders.

Among the key additions for 2026 is Leaders Club 100, an exclusive invitation-only network bringing together ministers, CEOs, senior executives, and healthcare leaders for high-level discussions, networking, and collaboration.

The exhibition is also enhancing its investor engagement through the new Capital Xchange program, building on the success of last year’s Investor Program. The initiative will connect investors, startups, and policymakers through networking events, site visits, and strategic partnership opportunities.

Mostafa Abdelrahman, President and General Manager Eli Lilly Saudi Arabia RQH, a leading American pharmaceutical firm, shared their 2025 experience: “Last year’s Global Health Exhibition was a valuable opportunity for Eli Lilly to engage with the leaders, partners, and stakeholders shaping the future of healthcare in Saudi Arabia, advancing strategic collaborations that reinforce our commitment to delivering innovative medicines for patients across the Kingdom in support of Vision. We are pleased to return in 2026 and look forward to deepening our contribution to the Kingdom’s healthcare transformation.”

Another new feature is Pulse Studio, a live podcast platform where CEOs, healthcare innovators, and industry experts will discuss the trends and challenges shaping the future of healthcare.

Organised by Tahaluf, GHE builds on the success of its 2025 edition, which attracted more than 130,000 healthcare professional visits, 600+ speakers, 2,000+ brands, and facilitated US$35.5 billion in deals. The 2026 edition aims to further strengthen Saudi Arabia’s position as a global healthcare hub and accelerate healthcare transformation across the region.
