Formerly Africa Health

Your trusted event, now where it matters most

The World Health Expo (formerly Africa Health) is returning to Johannesburg! After two successful years in Cape Town, we’re excited to bring the event back to Africa’s healthcare engine room. This move enhances access, scale, and business opportunities, ensuring the event continues to deliver unmatched value to exhibitors and attendees alike. While the event has evolved from Africa Health to the World Health Expo, its purpose remains the same: to be the premier platform where the healthcare industry meets, trades, and grows.
