RAMSEY, N.J., March 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Top medical device
manufacturers are supporting MPO Symposium Costa Rica, the leading
medical device manufacturing conference series.
Hologic, Hospira, Boston Scientific, Allergan, Siemens, as well
as the Costa Rican government are active participants in this
don’t-miss international event, taking place May 11-13 at the
Marriott Costa Rica in San Jose. In addition to the impressive
roster of topics and speakers scheduled, one of the
unique—and most exciting—features of attending MPO
Symposium Costa Rica is the opportunity to visit the local
facilities of global medtech manufacturers. A select group of
companies will open their doors for Symposium attendees to share
their knowledge about the intricacies of doing business abroad and
creating world-class manufacturing centers offshore.
The plant tours (space is limited, so please register early) are
only one part of the conference experience, however. The conference
kicks off on May 11 with one-to-one meetings arranged by the
conference coordinators to pair suppliers and contract
manufacturers with medical device firms. A welcome reception
concludes the first day. The following day presents conference
sessions covering topics such as the supplier quality evaluation
process, modern Lean manufacturing techniques and managing global
manufacturing relationships. The meeting culminates with a golf
outing on the final day. The agenda is designed to allow
conference-goers to learn, actively participate in discussions and
make critical business contacts.
“MPO Symposium is the most unique event of its kind in the
medical device space,” said Howard Revitch, group publisher for the
Medical Device Group at Rodman Publishing. “This event
presents a rare opportunity to learn firsthand from manufacturers,
peers and top-notch speakers.”
