WHX Labs Dubai—formerly MEDLAB Middle East—is the world’s leading trade show for medical laboratory technology and is considered the largest event of its kind in the Middle East and Africa. Building on a 25-year legacy, it brings together the international laboratory community on a shared platform for innovation, knowledge exchange, and business development.
The trade show will take place from January 26 to 29, 2027, at the Dubai World Trade Center (DWTC) and will bring together more than 20,000 trade visitors from over 180 countries, as well as more than 800 exhibitors. It covers the entire spectrum of the medical laboratory industry, including:
- Laboratory Diagnostics and Analytical Technology
- Laboratory equipment, instruments, and facilities
- Measurement Technology and Cleanroom Technology
- Biotechnology and Pharmacy
- Digital Health and AI-Powered Laboratory Automation
In addition to the exhibition space, WHX Labs Dubai offers an extensive conference program featuring CME-accredited sessions, workshops, networking events, and innovation forums. The concurrent program covers topics such as antimicrobial resistance (AMR), digital transformation in the laboratory, and laboratory automation. The event runs concurrently with WHX Dubai (formerly Arab Health).
WHX Labs Dubai is part of Informa Markets' global World Health Expo (WHX) network, which connects healthcare trade shows around the world and thus offers a unique international reach.
