Messe München has announced it has secured a new event: DMEA – Connecting Digital Health, the event for players in the digital health industry. It will make Munich its new home from 2027 onwards, moving from Berlin.
The event draws more than 20,000 visitors and organisers the German Association of Healthcare IT Vendors (bvitg) say the new location will enable strategic further development of DMEA. Organisers say they will focus on strengthening the international orientation of the event.
The 2027 show will take place 13-15 April, 2027, with over 800 exhibitors expected.
“With this trade fair location, we are creating nothing less than the epicentre of digital healthcare in Europe. Industry, research, and self-government are pooling their expertise here for the benefit of customers and patients – for innovations that set standards and have a decisive and lasting impact on markets,” said Matthias Meierhofer, CEO of bvitg.
“Munich offers the right ecosystem and ideal conditions for sophisticated technology and science trade fairs. DMEA stands for quality, expertise, and innovation exchange at the highest level. We look forward to further developing the event together with bvitg and the entire industry in Munich,” said Dr Reinhard Pfeiffer and Stefan Rummel, the two CEOs of Messe München.
“Starting in 2027, DMEA will be co-operating with a trade fair partner at the absolute top level: economically high performing, a leader in trade fair technology, and perfectly designed for the growth of Europe’s most important digital health format,” said Dagmar Brandenstein, managing director of bvitg Service GmbH, who negotiated the agreement.
According to forecasts, the global market for software, hardware, and services in this area will grow by well over 20% by 2030. In Europe alone, the market volume is expected to exceed US$265bn by then (2024: US$79sbn).
Bernhard Calmer, MC, CEO at CGM Clinical Europe GmbH: “DMEA stands for digital healthcare that is noticeably improving everywhere in Germany – not just in the capital. In a federal system, states and regions bear central responsibility for hospital planning, investment, and implementation. A location like Munich combines this with one of the strongest high-tech and innovation ecosystems in Europe – with clinics, research, medtech, start-ups, and industry in close proximity. This strengthens DMEA as a leading national platform: less debate – more implementation power.”
