"Under the ‘Made in Russia’ national brand, the companies in question presented unique developments in the field of high-precision medical simulators, ophthalmological technologies, screening devices, and research and diagnostic equipment," the report said.

Exporters held more than 100 business meetings with key organizations in the region during the three-day exhibition, in addition to participating in a roundtable on "Russia-Turkiye Cooperation in Healthcare".

"For 30 years, Expomed Eurasia in Istanbul has been an important platform for members of the healthcare industry from Turkiye, the CIS countries, Europe, Asia and Africa. Many successful partnerships have been established here. Russian manufacturers are part of this growing international trade hub, which will host more than 600 companies from 18 countries in 2023," an Expomed Eurasia representative said.

Turkiye has been one of Russia's most important and long-time partners, and in 2022, trade between the countries doubled.

"Currently, the trade turnover is $65.3 billion and we see good prospects for boosting the volume of exports to Turkiye and further developing bilateral cooperation, including in the field of healthcare and medical technologies. Russian exporters traditionally participate in Expomed Eurasia since it is a good platform for establishing business contacts with predominant international players, importers and distributors. Russian companies’ great interest in the Turkish market serves as an impetus for expanding the foreign economic activities of a number of Russian regions," emphasized Alaudin Yarahmedov, Trade Advisor to the Russian Trade Mission in Turkiye, Istanbul Branch.

At the upcoming exhibitions in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, Russian manufacturers will continue to exhibit Russian developments in the field of healthcare to foreign partners.
