WELCOME INTRODUCTION Serge Bernasconi Chief Executive Officer MedTech Europe Dear partners, I m pleased to announce that The MedTech Forum enters a new era in 2018! At MedTech Europe, the voice of the in vitro diagnostics (IVD) and medical devices (MD) industry in Europe, we are reshaping our annual Forum with the ambition to make it THE European medical technology event to be at or to be seen at for anyone involved in or with medical technology in Europe. We also have the objective over the years to multiply by 5 the current number of participants. We will gradually enlarge the program to address a greater variety of topics: from very specialised to very general and from very specific to global, but always with a multi stakeholders approach. We will also increase the target audience to a broader representation of our industry (which in total employs 650,000 people in Europe), patients, hospital representatives, service providers, suppliers, scientific societies, national associations, policy-makers, Notified Bodies, consultants, authorities, etc and we will create opportunities for SMEs, startups and investors. Last but not least, we will agglomerate over the years several of MedTech Europe events together. To achieve our goals, we are working with a new partner Europa Organisation of well-known and innovative experts in congress organization and development. Together with them, our sponsors, our supporters and the media, we will bring The MedTech Forum to the next level. MedTech Europe will ensure that your investment brings you the best outcome you are looking for. See you in Brussels on 23-25 January 2018 SPONSORSHIP BROCHURE I 3
