More than 1,700 participants and over 110 exhibiting companies shape Hopipharm 2026 as a concentrated forum for hospital pharmacy professionals. The congress takes place from 27 to 29 May 2026 at the Arena Sud de France in Montpellier and combines scientific sessions with an exhibition focused on hospital-grade products and services.

Exhibitor profiles and represented sectors
Exhibitors span pharmaceuticals, sterile medical devices, software publishers and clinical databases, together with automation and robotics suppliers. Logistics and pharmacy layout providers also participate, offering solutions tailored to internal hospital pharmacy workflows.
This mix concentrates decision makers from pharmacy units and hospital procurement teams relevant for commercial outreach.
Program elements relevant to B2B sales
The program combines scientific plenaries, DPC training sessions and exhibitor-led formats where companies can present live demonstrations. Vendor-managed workshops and symposiums are particularly relevant for showing equipment integration and clinical workflows.
Commercial teams should map exhibitor sessions and book slots in advance to showcase product capabilities under operational conditions and to gather technical questions that facilitate post-event follow up.
Preparing B2B prospecting at Hopipharm 2026
Set daily outreach targets and segment prospects by hospital function. Review the exhibitor list ahead of arrival and prioritize meetings with procurement and pharmacy heads. Prepare concise demos that can be repeated and technical briefs addressing sterilization compatibility and clinical integration. Capture contact information in a structured format for immediate CRM entry and schedule follow ups before leaving the venue.
For technical offers, ensure demo setups require minimal staff and provide comparison sheets that highlight time savings and compliance advantages for hospital use.
