Only 29% of HealthTech Exhibitors Track ROI — Here’s How the Smart Ones Will Win GITEX 2025

Last year, exhibitors at GITEX generated $2.7B in post-event deals — but over 70% never tracked their ROI beyond badge scans.
In 2025, data is the new booth design.

If you’re in HealthTech and not measuring conversions, follow-ups, and investor traction within 72 hours, you’re leaving tens of thousands in pipeline behind.

Here’s your insider map of where 200+ HealthTech startups are playing—and how to turn this year’s booth traffic into measurable ROI.


🩺 1. Telehealth & Remote Patient Monitoring

📈 Global telehealth market to hit $504B by 2030 — up 18.7% CAGR.

Why it matters: Hybrid care is the new default. Founders who show measurable patient outcomes will dominate partnerships.

Why Event Optimization Matters

GITEX isn’t just another exhibition — it’s an ecosystem-level amplifier for emerging markets.
In 2024 alone, $2.7B in HealthTech funding was influenced by deals and introductions made at global innovation expos like GITEX, CES, and Arab Health. Yet, according to Bizzabo’s global exhibitor report, only 29% of startups tracked post-event ROI beyond basic lead counts, and over 60% missed investor follow-ups due to fragmented data capture.

The numbers are telling:

  • ⏱️ Startups that followed up within 24 hours of booth meetings were 2.3× more likely to convert leads into funded pilots.

  • 💰 Exhibitors who calculated ROI during the event (not after) saw 31% faster payback on marketing spend.

  • 🤝 Teams that tracked “partnership ROI” — not just leads — generated 40% more cross-sector collaborations within 3 months.

In a HealthTech ecosystem where clinical pilots, regulatory traction, and investor visibility decide survival, event optimization isn’t a luxury — it’s leverage.
Those who leave with data leave with deals.
