During 27 years, KIHE has made a significant contribution to the development of domestic medicine, each year identifying current trends, current industry issues and the vector of their further solutions. KIHE is recognized by industry professionals as the key medical exhibition of the country for its contribution to the country's healthcare system and improving the skills of medical professionals through the demonstration of modern equipment and specialized seminars.

Traditionally the participants will present new medical, laboratory, diagnostic and rehabilitation equipment, a wide range of medicines, consumables, medical products, surgical instruments, optics and ophthalmology.
After the Coronavirus pandemic, the future of public healthcare and biosafety is important to Kazakhstan, as it is important to the entire global community. Point 3 in the Sustainable Development Goals of the Republic of Kazakhstan, adopted by our state, is to ensure a healthy lifestyle and promote the well-being and health of the nation for all ages. President K.-J. Tokayev also repeatedly mentioned this in his address to the nation. "There should be a Country National Biosecurity Forecasting System. As part of Healthy Nation project we should envisage equipping at least 12 laboratories with high-tech equipment, which will raise the level of our laboratories to international standards up to 90%. The medical industry needs a lot of funding. It's about infrastructure, human resources, and medical care," said the President.
The entire medical professional community needs a unified platform, where representatives of the state apparatus, manufacturers and suppliers of medical and pharmaceutical sectors, scientists and experts can effectively discuss the current state of affairs, as well as determine the path of further development of the healthcare system, exchange experiences with foreign colleagues, as well as improve their professional level. KIHE annually serves as such a platform, from year to year increasing the significance of the exhibition for the development of healthcare in our country.
In addition to the exhibition, the participants will have a rich business program. Training seminars, master classes and presentations will be continuously organized in two halls during the three days.
