Once again taking place at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry, this year’s expo promises to be the most exciting yet, with a host of new features and, of course, new innovation.
The profile spans the entire supply chain for those involved in the development and manufacturer of medical devices – from design through to scale-up, and from software through to IP protection.
Like the medtech industry itself, the expo is constantly evolving with the needs of the market. As healthcare becomes increasingly a consumer concern, suppliers will inevitably be discussing the latest trends in wearable tech, the quantified patient and data for healthcare.
This keen eye on trends is reflected too in the Med-Tech Innovation Conference, taking place at the heart of the show across both days. Organised in collaboration with Medilink UK, the conference is a must for those who need to keep a finger on the pulse of the industry. And with some of the biggest brands in the market slated to speak, the organisers are anticipating a full house.
Darren Clark, chief executive at Medilink East Midlands said of the conference:
“Whether you’re an established business or you’re just starting out, what better companies to hear from than technology giants such as Philips, Microsoft, Stratasys and 3M. Bill Cruise, vice president, Western Europe 3M and chair of Medilink UK, will open the conference on day two with some thoughts on current industry drivers, and share the experiences of one the world’s most innovative organisations. Sean O’Shea will provide Microsoft’s vision of the digital transformation of the healthcare sector, and additionally how smaller companies can take advantage of the opportunities to partner with Microsoft.”
This is the only event for the UK and Ireland where medical device stakeholders can meet with over 150 brands and suppliers to discuss challenges, trends, and make new business connections.
The event also boasts the endorsement of some of the leading authorities in the industry, with names like Innovate UK, the GTMA and Medilink UK all showing their support.
