GS1 Healthcare 20th anniversary

Two decades ago, GS1 brought barcode technology into the world of healthcare - revolutionising how medical products are identified, tracked, and managed across the global supply chain. This pivotal moment united the healthcare community around a shared mission: to make healthcare safer and more efficient for everyone, everywhere.

Since then, every scan powered by GS1 standards has done more than move a product - it helped protect a patient. From manufacturing to the point of care, that simple "beep" has become a symbol of trust, enabling smarter decisions, stronger traceability, and safer outcomes.

Join us in celebrating 20 years of progress, partnership, and the power of one barcode.
