Enterprise Florida, Inc. (EFI) announced on Monday that will again host the largest pavilion of any state at the MEDICA trade fair in Düsseldorf, Germany this week.
Florida’s two-story pavilion will exhibit 27 small and mid-size businesses, and another 10 state companies will exhibit outside the Florida Pavilion. This marks the 31st consecutive year the state will attend.
“MEDICA is the biggest tradeshow we attend annually and the small businesses that exhibit with us have continued to build on their successes over the years,” said Florida Deputy Secretary of Commerce Laura DiBella on Monday. “Attending MEDICA gives our team a unique opportunity to share Florida’s strong life sciences story with industry leaders from around the world. We are looking forward to traveling alongside Florida companies as we showcase the Sunshine State to the world.”
