This summer, we’re taking Utah global — domestically
We’ve done our fair share of globetrotting. Through exhibiting at Bio Korea, Arab Health, and MEDICA (Düsseldorf), Utah's life science industry has made itself known on the international stage. But this year, the world is coming to us! For the first time ever, Utah will exhibit at the Florida International Medical Expo (FIME) in Miami.
Sponsored by World Trade Center Utah in partnership with the Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity (GOEO), the Utah booth at FIME will showcase some of the best businesses in the state.
About FIME
FIME is the Americas’ leading trade expo for the medical industry and healthcare procurement. In 2023, the show hosted over 1,300 exhibitors from 116 different countries!
Companies in the following industries are encouraged to apply to join the Utah booth:
Medical equipment and devices
Disposables and consumer goods
Orthopedics and physiotherapy
Imaging and diagnostics
Healthcare and general services
IT systems and solutions
Healthcare infrastructure and assets
Wellness and prevention
Why attend?
By joining our shared booth space at the Florida International Medical Expo, your business will:
1. Connect with the best of the global medical industry: Our shared booth setting cultivates valuable networking interactions, allowing you to develop partnerships, explore collaborations, and expand your professional network with the world's medical and healthcare industry leaders.
2. Expedite revenue opportunities: In 2023, over $100 million in deals were generated on the show floor at FIME. Utah companies exhibiting at this show can capitalize on a unique opportunity to meet hospital purchasing agents and other industry procurement specialists looking for new products.
3. Marketing and promotional support: Benefit from World Trade Center Utah’s strategic branding, vast network, and targeted promotion to boost your presence before, during, and after the event.
Application
Participating in a shared booth significantly reduces the cost of an international exhibition as the Utah booth fee is just $500. Because individual exhibition spaces are limited, potential attendees will go through a competitive application process. Those selected will be determined based on the following criteria:
A company must be eligible to receive the SBA STEP Grant. Small businesses can apply for the SBA STEP Grant through World Trade Center Utah. Approved companies will receive funding to offset travel and lodging costs. The grant can NOT be used to cover the WTC Utah booth fee. All grant awards require a 25% cash match by the recipient.
Companies must have an export-ready product or service and a plan to grow global revenue through show attendance.
Companies must meet all application deadlines.
Selected registrants must attend all orientation sessions before the trade show.
Application Instructions
To indicate your interest in the Florida International Medical Expo, please fill out this form by May 1, 2024.
If selected to exhibit, the WTC Utah grant administrator will contact you to complete your STEP application and instruct you on how to register as a co-exhibitor.
Apply to represent Utah in our state booth at the Florida International Market Expo before May 1, 2024.
