International expert meeting: "Health Business Connect"

For the second time the IVAM Microtechnology Network, in cooperation with the French partner Pôle des Microtechniques, is going to organize  the "Health Business Connect – Micro & Nano MEETS Medical Innovation" on July 6, 2017, this time in Dortmund, Germany.
 
The main focus of the Health Business Connect is furthering cooperation between component manufacturers and medical device manufacturers from Germany, France and other countries as well as joint projects, experience exchange and potential opportunities for cooperations. In addition to organized business meetings, there will be interesting keynote lectures, company pitches as well as a networking lunch for further exchange among the participants. In addition there will be a visit at Fraunhofer ISST – Institute for Software and Systems Engineering – on “Digitalization in HealthCare”.
 
The event is aimed at medical technology companies on the entire value chain: technology developers, component manufacturers, software, test and analysis businesses and medical device manufacturers.
