There will also be an expanded learning program to talk more about technology developments and innovations.

“With our first full year of ownership under our belt, and two editions completed we are now ready to execute on our ambition and plans for Medtech Innovation Expo,” said Duncan Wood, CEO of Rapid News Communications which owns the Medtech Innovation Expo. “Building a showcase event for the industry was always the plan, in 2019 we take the next step towards developing a truly exciting, international event for the medical device technology and healthcare sector in UK.”

The Medtech Innovation Expo is set to take place May 15-16, 2019 in Hall 2 at the NEC.
