Intersana is one of Germany's longest-running health fairs and takes place at regular intervals at the Augsburg Exhibition Center. It is aimed at a broad audience of medical professionals, healthcare providers, self-help groups, health insurance companies, rehabilitation facilities, and, of course, health-conscious citizens. What makes Intersana special is its unique combination of a specialist event, health platform, and interactive fair. It creates space for information, education, prevention, and dialogue – bringing together medical expertise and personal life experiences.
The trade fair concept is based on a holistic understanding of health: it is not only about therapy and medicine, but also about prevention, nutrition, exercise, mental balance, care, rehabilitation, and social participation. Intersana offers a wide range of services – from traditional medical practitioners and alternative healing methods to innovative start-ups in the field of digital health. Exhibitors present modern medical technology, natural remedies, nutritional concepts, care aids, sports and fitness products, medical accessories, laboratory solutions, and health-related services – for both trade visitors and end consumers.
A central element of Intersana is its comprehensive supporting program. In several lecture forums, experts from the fields of medicine, research, psychology, physiotherapy, and nursing will speak on current health topics. Visitors will learn, for example, how modern diagnostics work, what personalized medicine can achieve, and which nutritional trends are really useful. In addition, numerous workshops invite visitors to participate—such as exercise programs, relaxation techniques, and first aid courses. Health checks and counseling sessions are particularly popular: from blood pressure measurements and vein analyses to body fat determination and individual nutritional counseling.
An important focus of Intersana is on prevention—not only on an individual level, but also on a societal level. Health insurance companies, cities, health authorities, and social institutions present programs for health promotion, early detection, and education. Topics such as occupational health management, healthy aging, children's health, and addiction prevention are presented in a practical manner. The interaction between public services and personal health behavior in particular highlights how much health is a collective good – and how important low-threshold information services such as Intersana are.
A growing segment of Intersana is dedicated to the care industry: outpatient services, nursing homes, care services, digital support systems, and legal advice on all aspects of care needs. Topics such as barrier-free living, age-appropriate nutrition, and the role of relatives are also in focus. The trade fair is aimed at both nursing professionals and those affected and their families – providing low-threshold access to knowledge and services, which is becoming increasingly important in the healthcare landscape.
Technological change is also noticeable at Intersana. Digital health applications, wearables, telemedicine, electronic patient records, and AI-based diagnostic systems – the trade fair shows how medicine can become more modern, more precise, and at the same time more patient-oriented. Start-ups from the e-health sector present smart solutions for monitoring, training, medication management, and therapy support – many of which can be directly applied in everyday life. Anyone interested in other specialist and public events in the Augsburg region – on topics such as technology, sustainability, education, or crafts – will find a comprehensive overview of the diverse range of regional trade fairs at Augsburg Trade Fair.
Intersana is not only an information platform, but also an interactive experience space. Whether through exchanges with doctors, testing new products, personal health consultations, or participating in an exercise course – health is made tangible here. Self-help groups, social initiatives, counseling centers, and patient advocacy organizations are also an integral part of the fair – they provide guidance, solidarity, and concrete support to those affected.
With its central location, modern trade fair infrastructure, and strong network of clinics, research institutes, educational institutions, and social service providers, Augsburg offers optimal conditions for a broad-based health fair such as Intersana. The city itself is increasingly focusing on prevention projects, health promotion, and medical innovations – thus reflecting the fair's aim of making healthy living visible in all its facets.
Intersana in Augsburg is a trade fair for professionals and laypeople, for young and old, for healthy people and those with illnesses. It creates connections – between medical knowledge and personal life, between professional advice and private health commitment.
