Connections Programme

Hear first-hand from exhibitors at previous WHX editions

“The quality of connections at the Connections Programme has been very good. We've already identified 1–2 potential distributors, had meaningful discussions, exchanged contacts, and introduced them to our products and what makes them unique in the market. This platform makes it easy and accessible to connect with the right distributors and business partners under one roof. We're very positive about the opportunities and outcomes that can come from these connections moving forward."

Vatsu Sharma, 

Previous Tempo Limited, India

“WHX exceeded my expectations this year. I've had the opportunity to meet a large number of customers and distributors, and I would describe this platform as a true solution provider. We achieved all the targets we set for ourselves, which made the experience even more valuable. I would highly recommend the Connections Programme to distributors. It has opened up many new opportunities for my business and connected me with the right people. The quality of the products, exhibitors, and visitors has been outstanding, and I'm genuinely satisfied with everything I've experienced here."

Jibrael Ibrahim, 

Lagun Technologies Limited, Cameroon

“The quality of conversations I've had through Connections Programme has been exceptional. The diversity of participants across the healthcare sector has led to meaningful discussions on advancing healthcare across West Africa. I'm genuinely glad I joined the programme. It enabled me to connect with new partners, sponsors, and distributors for my medical devices and healthcare products. The experience has been both impactful and valuable for growing my network and exploring new opportunities. I would highly recommend the Connections Programme to healthcare professionals looking to build meaningful industry connections.”
