Partnering, Funding & Technology Transfer for the International MedTech Marketplace

MedTech innovation is driven by the quest to address unmet clinical needs and relies on partnerships within the industry and collaboration across research establishments, investors, clinicians and healthcare providers.

Over the past five years, the Medical Innovation Forum has become established as a leading provider of physical networking events for all those with an interest in new medical technologies, to discuss innovations, identify new market opportunities, fast-track technology transfer, find partners and seek funding/licensing agreements.

However, the speed in which new technologies can successfully be brought to market increasingly relies on both national and international collaboration. So the Medical Innovation Forum has now extended its reach via a unique online partnering portal through which national and international collaboration and funding opportunities can be pursued.

Membership of the Medical Innovation Forum includes:

		Executives, designers and engineers from medical device companies and their suppliers; Clinicians and healthcare managers involved in commercialising innovations;
		Universities & research institutes with new scientific advances or technologies to transfer;
		Clinicians and healthcare managers involved in commercialising innovations;
		Venture capitalists and business development executives seeking investment opportunities and the creation of new partnerships.

Members can utilise the partnering portal, to access a programme of exclusive online events, view collaboration profiles and communicate with one another to explore partnering opportunities.

Universities involved in MedTech research projects and companies interested in exploring academic/industry partnerships can explore technology transfer, licensing and other collaboration opportunities.

For innovators seeking finance, a webcast investor presentation service enables MedTech companies to successfully engage with prospective European, U.S. and Asian investors.
