Exposanità

Exposanità, the Italian healthcare fair in Bologna

Exposanità is the leading Italian trade fair dedicated to the world of healthcare and social-healthcare. It takes place at BolognaFiere, in the exhibition district of the Municipality of Bologna, the capital of Emilia-Romagna, and is held biennially, making it a privileged observatory on the evolution of the National Health Service.

Founded in the late seventies, the event has established itself as a meeting place for industry, hospitals, local health authorities, professionals, researchers, and patient associations. Each edition brings technology into dialogue with people's real needs, from prevention to chronic conditions, from disability to rehabilitation.

Thematic Halls

The heart of Exposanità lies in its structure of thematic halls, each with its own exhibition path and a packed schedule of conferences:

• Hospital — design, management, equipment, and technologies for hospital facilities, focusing on procurement, clinical engineering, and healthcare facility management;
• Horus — mobility aids, orthopedics, medical supplies, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation, with the Fisio4Future and Ortho4Future paths;
• Diagnostics — medical imaging and electromedical diagnostics, with a growing focus on artificial intelligence;
• Digital Health — telemedicine, electronic health records, cybersecurity, and AI applications;
• Elderly Care — assistance for the elderly and frail individuals;
• Salute Amica and MiT — best practices, organizational innovation, and advanced devices.

Conferences, Workshops, and Innovation

The scientific program is one of the fair's strengths: over 200 conferences and workshops and hundreds of speakers address the major current topics, from artificial intelligence applied to diagnostics to telemedicine, from robotics to the redesign of care settings. Alongside the educational events, numerous special initiatives highlight projects, awards, and networking opportunities among operators.

An Event for Bologna and Emilia-Romagna

For the Municipality of Bologna and the entire Emilia-Romagna region, a region always at the forefront of the healthcare system, Exposanità represents a significant national and international showcase. During the fair days, the city welcomes thousands of professionals, helping to make Bologna a reference point for the debate on the future of healthcare in Italy.
