An estimated two thirds of the medical technology manufactured in Germany is exported - and the top target countries are the USA and China outside of Europe. But as important as the international markets are, the paths to bringing products onto the market there are sometimes rocky. The MedicalMountains GmbH symposium focuses on questions of international approvals. On the one hand from a pragmatic point of view with tips and recommendations at workshops, on the other hand from the overarching perspective of how harmonization can succeed, Europe can learn from others and digitization can help with the processes.

Some of the lectures will be held in English.

The program is continuously updated.

The participation fee is €320.00 (plus VAT). Members of TechnologyMountains eV or the Med Alliance only pay €220.00 (plus VAT).
