Summary of the contracting process

The Welsh Government, located at Cathays Park, Cardiff, has completed the award stage of the procurement process for the contract titled "C247/2024/2025 - Exhibition Space at Medica 2025." This procurement, categorized under services with a focus on exhibition stands and fair and exhibition organisation services, involved an awarded contract to Messe Dusseldorf. The contract, valued at £115,000, was signed on 6th February 2025, marking the transition from the tender to the award stage. The procurement process was initiated to secure exhibition space at the Medica 2025 event, reflecting the strategic ambitions of the Welsh Government to engage in international trade shows.

This tender opens up opportunities for businesses specialising in exhibition services to explore future partnerships with government entities. The procurement offers growth potential by providing a platform at a prominent international exhibition, which companies can leverage to expand their market presence. Although the competition in this instance resulted in a single bid, firms with expertise in managing large-scale exhibitions, particularly those with a presence or interest in international fairs, would be well-suited for such opportunities. This highlights the importance for businesses to maintain a strong capability in navigating public procurement processes for services within the exhibition sector.
