Diagnostics
The diagnostics sector is rapidly developing, with new innovations driven by miniaturisation, the increasing need for diagnostic tests being performed at the point-of-care and the quest to move towards personalised medicine.
There are exciting opportunities for diagnostic device companies, in areas such as: disease prevention, infectious disease testing and molecular oncology.
The Medical Innovation Forum provides a valuable opportunity to gain insights on new technologies that will influence diagnostic product development and to better understand clinical needs.
With changing relationships between in vitro diagnostic companies and the pharmaceutical industry and convergence of IVDs and medical imaging the need to explore collaboration options is greater than ever. The pre-arranged meetings service provides a tried and tested mechanism for participants to identify and meet-up with potential partner organisations.
