Why you need to visit this year’s MD&M East

Taking place in New York on 12-14 June, this year’s event promises to offer the medtech visitor high quality and unrivalled expertise.

MD&M East sits within Advanced Manufacturing New York, the East Coast’s advanced design and manufacturing event. This year its organisers have announced the introduction of three new education hubs that bring conference-level education to the expo floor. With a full schedule of content across all three days of the event, the education hubs are, focused on medtech, smart manufacturing, and packaging.

The event takes place 12-14 June at Javits Convention Center.

“The education hubs are an exciting development for us as it’s the first we’re bringing a complete and robust line-up of conference-quality content to the expo, free of charge for all attendees. Not only will this give all our attendees the opportunity to experience high-level presentations on the latest industry trends, but it will also bring more action to an already lively expo floor,” said Nina Brown, vice president of events, UBM.

“We encourage all of our attendees to take full advantage of this unique opportunity to learn from industry leaders.”

Medtech Education Hub:

Developed for medical device engineers working in R&D, design and product development, the Medtech Education Hub offers top-notch education from industry experts. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the latest innovations and breakthroughs affecting the medical device industry today. Highlights Include:

This panel discussion will cover AI and medical devices, and its potential impact on the industry landscape. This session will also focus on challenges surrounding AI applications in imaging, surgical robotics, neurological disorders and other use cases.

Medtech is at the crossroads of healthcare and technology, and, through innovation, new technologies can change how healthcare is delivered through medical devices. Learn about the latest trends and what’s coming down the pike in this ever-evolving industry.

Smart Manufacturing Education Hub:

Advancements in technology are rapidly changing the way we manufacture, and the Smart Manufacturing Education Hub will drill-down on the key innovations and solutions that are transforming the manufacturing industry. Presentations will cover important topics such as big data, robotics, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, IIoT, machine learning, smart sensors, and the digital twin. Highlights Include:

Leading automation companies have been creating a menagerie of bionic animals and insects; this presentation will demonstrate how these robotic creatures help audit current trends in R&D, test new technologies and manufacturing methods, and encourage creativity in product development.

This session will look at the growth in demand for collaborative robotics, mobility's significant role in this growth, and whether robots will ever fully take over manufacturing jobs.

Packaging Education Hub:

Professionals across a variety from industry including medical devices and pharmaceuticals will benefit from the Packaging Education Hub to stay on top of the latest packaging trends, technologies, and materials, and will learn from best practices in the business. Highlights Include:

Medical device packaging contains a sterile barrier system to lock out microorganisms, making it nearly impossible to open packages without instant contamination. In this live demonstration, attendees will see how medical packages can be opened aseptically.
