Formerly Medlab Middle East

Medlab Middle East is now World Health Expo Labs

A new era built for the global laboratory community

Formerly known as Medlab Middle East, the event has now rebranded into World Health Expo Labs (WHX Labs) Dubai, hosted from 10–13 February 2026 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

Why the change?

Medlab Middle East has been the cornerstone for global medical laboratory events for 25 years. But now there's been a shift - Medlab has joined World Health Expo's global network of events.


This change means our events can now provide a broader, integrated platform aligned with today’s laboratory needs around the world.

WHX Labs Dubai still delivers the practical knowledge and trusted connections the community expects, but now it's unified across the globe.
