3 edito It s already 23 years since MedPi was created to bring together innovative technology products and retail. 23 years over which MedPi has adapted in response to the markets it serves and works to expand: yesterday, video games, hardware, telecoms; today, IoT, small household appliances and drones. 23 years over which MedPi has developed its services and tools so that meetings between the people that work in these markets are as effective as possible. But for 23 years, one thing hasn t changed: our motivation and purpose to satisfy your needs and help you to speed up your business development. This is why the next show will see major improvements: new dates, a new venue, and new packages, while continuing to further personal contacts and scheduling appointments. We look forward to seeing you very soon! Michel Filzi Chairman The same but better... We are taking an important step for the 24 th event and presenting you with an enhanced and expanded MedPi. MedPi connects and facilitates a real business community that is committed to developing an abundant and thriving market. No other event succeeds in bringing this business community together as faithfully and broadly. MedPi s sole aim is to satisfy this community by ensuring its expansion and helping it to conquer new markets. Passionate about innovation, the same core value as its market, the new MedPi is enriched with new audiences of decision-makers and purchasers who are actively involved in developing and optimising the market. The entire high-tech distribution ecosystem will finally have access to and benefit from the major structural changes appropriate to the required ROI. Building on its 23 years of understanding, MedPi is entering a new era so that it can provide a better response to the requirements of its customers and partners and continue to meet their legitimate and strong commercial ambitions. We are proud to present this enhanced MedPi for 2018! Laurent Eydieu Director of the New Technologies Division.3
