The largest B2B medical equipment trade fair, Medicall is organized by Medexpert Business Consultants Pvt Ltd, promoted by Dr. Manivannan S, Founder & Managing Director of Kauvery Group of Hospitals, a Hospital group in South India.

“Small and medium-sized hospital owners from tier II and III cities cannot afford to have qualified purchase managers. Equipment companies also do not have adequate sales force to meet all these hospital owners. Since I have undergone the difficulty for my hospital, I thought Medicall would bring in all equipment manufacturers under one roof,” said Dr. S Manivannan

Medicall serves as a marketing platform wherein the equipment companies showcase their products and services to Hospital owners and decision-makers.

Medicall shows have been held at Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Hyderabad, and Colombo since 2006. Medicall has completed 38 successful editions.
