Hosted as usual in the exhibition halls of IEG in Rimini, the 2026 edition of Expodental Meeting has just ended with outstanding results, confirming the event’s growth path, its international leadership in the dental sector and its strategic role as a reference event for the Italian and international sector. The event recorded more than 21,000 attendees over the three days of the event, 4,000 more unique visitors than in 2025, and a significant growth in foreign participation (+40%), reflecting the growing international appeal of the event.
Organized by UNIDI in collaboration with Italian Exhibition Group, the event welcomed 400 exhibitors and, thanks to the contribution of ICE Agency, 100 international dealers from 38 countries, fostering about 800 B2B meetings and further strengthening Expodental Meeting’s positioning as a platform of excellence for innovation, training and business development and confirming it as an international benchmark.
“The 2026 edition confirms the value and solidity of Expodental Meeting as a reference point for the entire dental supply chain and for all professionals and companies involved in the protection of oral health, a fundamental component of the broader system of personal health and well-being,” says Fabio Velotti, UNIDI President. “The results achieved testify to the event’s ability to interpret the evolution of the sector, favoring comparison, innovation and international relations. Fundamental in this growth path is the partnership with Italian Exhibition Group, recently renewed until 2029, with which we share a strategic vision oriented toward the development and internationalization of the event.”
“The success of Expodental Meeting 2026 confirms the effectiveness of the collaboration and teamwork between IEG and UNIDI in building an increasingly influential and internationally competitive event,” says Maurizio Ermeti, president of Italian Exhibition Group. “Expodental Meeting represents a particularly significant appointment for IEG: in fact, it is one of the few non-proprietary events hosted by our Group and is the only exhibition in the health and medical sector in our exhibition portfolio. An element that confirms the strategic value of the partnership with UNIDI and the ability of Expodental Meeting to stand out for quality, innovation and international authority. The Rimini fair thus consolidates its role as an international hub for major events, enhancing Italian excellence in technologies and services dedicated to health.”
Appointment in Rimini for the next Expodental Meeting May 13-15, 2027.
