Innovative implants are undergoing a highly diverse and strongly cooperative development process. A wide variety of industries with a large number of players are involved in the successful development of an implant system. In addition to the technological requirements, the problems of global supply chains, medical device regulation and practical use in everyday clinical practice must be considered as a whole.

Get an insight into the development of innovative implants from well-known companies!

Experts from the involved industries will meet on March 9, 2023 in Freiburg im Breisgau on the topic: Innovative Implant Technologies - The Path from Design to User and will present and discuss the latest trends and challenges in the field of implant development.  

In addition to the latest technological developments, voices from the field of practical medical practice as well as from the field of medical device regulation will have a chance to speak and present their various demands on the development process.
