We cordially invite you to our Lunch & Learn event focussing on procurement in the field of medical technology and the cooperation between Baden-Württemberg and the United Kingdom.
Baden-Württemberg is an economically strong region and an important centre of the medical technology industry. The region is known for its innovative strength and a strong research and development landscape. In addition, sustainable and high-quality procurement processes are of great importance in Baden-Württemberg.
The United Kingdom is an important player in the global medical technology industry. It is investing heavily in digital health technologies and networked medical devices. The medical technology industry is overseen by strict regulations and standards set by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). In addition, the National Health Service (NHS) plays a central role in procurement and collaboration with the industry.
The cooperation between the two regions strengthens the exchange of knowledge as well as market access and the expansion of companies. In addition, common challenges are facilitated by adapting to regulatory changes and integrating new technologies.
Learn about the specific procurement strategies and processes of medical technology in the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK. Learn more from Baden-Württemberg about the specifics and challenges of procurement in leading medical technology companies and gain practical insights into the procurement processes of clinics and hospitals and how they select the best products and technologies.
Be part of this informative event and prepare yourself for the future of medical technology procurement in Baden-Württemberg and the UK.
