New Delhi, Sep 2 : The Department of Pharmaceuticals is set to host the second edition of the India MedTech Expo 2025 to showcase the country's strength and innovation in medical technologies, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers said on Tuesday.

The three-day expo will be held at Bharat Mandapam, Pragati Maidan, here, from September 4-6, as part of the larger Bharat Health 2025 initiative.

'India MedTech Expo has emerged as a premier platform to highlight India's capabilities and growth in the medical technology and devices sector. The 2025 edition will once again bring together policymakers, global business leaders, innovators, investors, and healthcare stakeholders, reinforcing India's position as a hub for precision-driven, yet affordable, MedTech solutions,' the Ministry said.

With more than 800 MedTech start-ups, strong R&D capabilities, and a fast-growing manufacturing base, we are positioning India as not just a consumer market, but as a global innovation and export hub,' said Praveen Kumar Mittal, Executive Director, Export Promotion Council for Medical Devices (EPCMD).
