The Mission
What is the Dubai Healthcare Executive Trade Mission?
A curated executive delegation built around World Healthcare Week 2027 in Dubai. Delegates take part in WHX and WHX Tech in full, and the mission adds a private program of briefings, curated meetings and hosted evenings across Dubai.
Who organizes and operates the mission?
Dubai Ventures LLC organizes and operates the mission. Delegate seats are confirmed individually by Dubai Ventures LLC.
When does the mission take place?
January 24 to 30, 2027 in Dubai, during World Healthcare Week 2027. WHX runs 25 to 28 January at Dubai Exhibition Centre, Expo City, and WHX Tech runs 27 to 29 January at Dubai World Trade Centre.
How many delegates are accepted?
The delegation is curated, with decision makers only. Places are limited and every delegate affects the quality of the room.
Is this the same as attending World Healthcare Week?
No. The mission is built around World Healthcare Week and is additive to conference attendance and exhibition access. Delegates take part in WHX and WHX Tech in full, and the mission adds the private program: briefings, curated meetings, the Capital Club Dubai day and the hosted evenings.
Eligibility and Fit
Who is this mission designed for?
Senior decision makers in healthcare, health technology and life sciences: founders and executives, hospital and clinic operators, MedTech and pharma companies, investors and family offices, and organizations attracting healthcare investment to their own markets.
Do I need to attend the full program?
Yes. The whole delegation follows the full program, January 24 to 30.
I am not sure whether this is the right fit. What should I do?
Book a discovery call. It is a private 30-minute call with no obligation. We confirm fit, answer your questions and tell you honestly whether the mission is right for you.
Can I send a colleague or team member instead of attending myself?
Each seat is confirmed to a named executive after a discovery call. If a colleague is the right person to attend, they apply in their own name and we confirm fit on a call with them.
The Program
What does the mission include?
Six nights five-star accommodation, executive ground transport including transfers between both venues, full participation in WHX and WHX Tech, government, regulator and health system briefings in coordination, private delegation meetings at both venues, program registrations, the Capital Club Dubai meeting day with private meeting space and pre-arranged introductions, all mission-hosted evenings, concierge coordination from arrival to departure, and the delegate welcome package.
What are the hosted evenings?
Three invitation-only evenings: the Delegation Dinner with a small curated group of local key stakeholders; The Dubai Ventures Reception, the mission's flagship evening; and the Closing Reception at Capital Club Dubai, hosted by Dubai Ventures. The WHX Gala Evening is in coordination.
What do I receive before departure?
A working outline for your week after the discovery call, a strategy session once onboarded, your final itinerary, and the delegate welcome package covering best practices and local recommendations.
What is the Capital Club meeting day?
A full day at Capital Club Dubai on Friday, January 29: government and institutional briefings in the morning, a delegation and investors luncheon at midday, pre-arranged one on one introductions in private meeting space through the afternoon, and the Closing Reception in the evening. Founding Sponsors hold a private office.
What are the three tracks?
Track 01 Digital Health and AI, timed to WHX Tech. Track 02 MedTech, Diagnostics, Pharma and Biotech. Track 03 Health Systems, Infrastructure and Longevity Capital, timed to WHX Leaders. Your track shapes the counterparties we identify for you. The program is shared by the whole delegation.
How are the curated introductions arranged?
Your track and the objectives set in your strategy session shape the counterparties we identify. Private delegation meetings at WHX and WHX Tech are arranged on a rolling basis through the week. Pre-arranged one on one introductions are held on the Capital Club day and shared with you before arrival.
What is not included?
Airfare of any kind. Nights outside the delegation block, which are arranged directly with the hotel. Exhibition space at WHX Tech, which is arranged separately through Dubai Ventures.
