    04

    Regulatory Reform in Public Rehabilitation Funding

    Decision

    Visit, exhibit, or skip?

    Should you go?

    Answer these 8 questions to get a personalised recommendation on whether you should visit, exhibit, or skip the Rehabilitation Fair 2026. Based on your goals, budget, and resources, we'll suggest the best decision

    QUESTION 1 OF 8

    What is your primary goal for attending a trade fair?

    Decision matrix

    Compare participation options side by side to choose the best fit for your objectives.

    visit

    You have a clear list of exhibitors to visit, you want to attend the conference for CPD, and you have limited budget for booth costs

    Best for

    Professionals seeking to learn, network, and source without the commitment of a booth. Ideal for clinic owners, physiotherapists, and procurement managers who want to assess suppliers face-to-face

    Timeline

    1–3 days (free registration; plan sessions in advance)

    Risks

    Limited one-on-one time with key exhibitors if crowds are high

    May miss out on exclusive exhibitor networking events

    Less visibility for your own brand

    exhibit

    You have a compelling demo or launch, you can staff the booth with knowledgeable team members, and you have a post-show lead follow-up plan

    Best for

    Companies with new products, established brands wanting to maintain visibility, and service providers targeting rehabilitation and physiotherapy professionals

    Timeline

    4–6 days (setup 29–30 Sept, fair 1–3 Oct, teardown 3–4 Oct)

    Risks

    Significant upfront investment (booth, travel, staffing)

    ROI depends on quality of leads and follow-up

    Logistical challenges with shipping and customs

    Competition for attendee attention

    skip

    Your target market is outside Europe, you have no product fit for the rehabilitation audience, or you prefer digital marketing as your primary channel

    Best for

    Businesses with very limited budgets, those not operating in Poland/CEE, or those who can achieve their goals through remote channels

    Timeline

    No time commitment

    Risks

    Missing out on industry trends and networking

    Losing visibility to competitors who are present

    Potential future market entry may be harder without prior connections
