Held under the theme “The Future of Healthcare: Equipment, Digital, Diagnostics, Medical Tourism, Wellness”, HOSPEX 2025 will host startups, researchers, and health tech innovators. The 3-day event at KINFRA International Exhibition Centre, Kakkanad, will include workshops, product showcases, and trend-focused conferences.
