BIOMEDevice is described as New England’s premier medtech event, and it hopes to bring together technology and product development best practices for successful innovation.
The BIOMEDevice event will be held in Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, Boston, Massachusetts between 15th and 16th May 2019.
The event is anticipating attendance from over 3,300 industry professionals and aims to update attendees on topics such as design engineering, biomedical innovation, and software capability.
The conference is designed for engineers, managers, and executives who are seeking solutions to help them turn concepts into competitive products.
All attendees will have the opportunity to attend tech sessions, panel discussions, and case study presentations. There will also be the chance to hear from both established companies and start-up companies as they outline new strategies to speed products to market.
In terms of exhibitors, there will be over 375 this year. This includes big industry names such as Accumold, BMP Medical, Nelson Laboratories, Qosina and many more.
Last year, attendees from leading medtech companies joined the conference delegation. Some examples of these companies were; Boston Scientific, FDA, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic and Siemens Healthcare.
There will be two main tracks at the event:
- Product development – Focusing on user-centered design strategies, product innovation with robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), risk management and scale-up approaches and regulatory strategies.
- Research and development – Focusing on sensors, bioelectronics, AI, and robotics, biomaterials and biocompatibility, productivity tools and advice, research funding strategies.
Additionally, there will be over 60 speakers talking at the function. This includes two expert key-note speakers; Scott Huennekens and Kevin Blankespoor.
Huennekens, founding CEO of Verb Surgical will discuss medtech 4.0 and how the intersection of robotics, AI, and medical devices could change the future of care. Huennekens will also provide insight in to what he believes all medtech professionals need to know about these topics.
Blankespoor, vice president of product engineering at Boston Dynamics, has spent years transitioning robotic prototypes into functional products. Blankespoor will discuss the different working applications for mobile robots within the real world, alongside a live demo of the Boston Dynamics robot, Spot.
It is worth highlighting that the one expo pass gives you access to all of the following three shows; BIOMEDevice Boston, Design & Manufacturing New England, and Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) Boston.
