Events

  IDTechEx is launching a new Healthcare Sensor Innovations conference. The annual conference will focus on the latest developments in the use of wearables and sensors in continuous monitoring of individuals and point-of-care diagnostics.

London is the centre of innovation, technology and networking when it comes to the UK, and therefore it makes sense to host a whole week of events based around all three of these aspects, and so welcome London Tech Week. London Tech Week is important for the country as we are currently in the middle of the 4th Industrial Revolution, which is transforming society and businesses alike.

ehi Live 2019 will be fully incorporated into the next Digital Healthcare Show, which is part of the Health+Care series of events on 26th-27th June 2019 at London ExCeL. The current NHS climate is tough for all health professionals, and those tasked with digital transformation have a particularly heavy weight of responsibility within their organisation to deliver an integrated, interoperable yet patient-centred system.

The Hamlyn Centre for Robotic Surgery at Imperial College London has announced the key programme highlights of its Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics 2019 (#HSMR19) which returns this June for its 12th consecutive year. The Symposium is an annual international conference on medical robotics, current clinical practice and emerging technologies in robotic surgery.

It has been announced that Siemens and partners, GEA and Perceptive Engineering, are hosting a three-day conference, ‘The Reality of Continuous Pharmaceutical Manufacturing’ to examine the latest thinking around continuous manufacturing (CM) technologies for pharmaceutical manufacturers. 

At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2019), in Las Vegas, imec and TNO are presenting the latest version of their health patch. Developed in the framework of the Holst Centre in Eindhoven, the new health patch offers comfort and a long battery life. It can also be manufactured at a fraction of the cost of previous generations, making it a user-friendly, disposable solution for ambulant patient monitoring.

Featuring innovations as diverse as a simple eye drop treatment that cures short-sightedness, a wearable monitor to warn of heart problems before they become critical, and a new drug for hard-to-treat cancers, the latest innovations in biotech, medical treatments and medical devices will be on show at the Future Tech Expo 2018.

  For some years now, medical technology has been among the sectors generating the most patent applications. Innovations and ongoing development for ever more application are increasingly dependent on an efficient energy supply that is precisely tailored to the individual requirements. 

Medical computing platform service and solution provider, Advantech, plans to showcase its latest medical computer solutions for hospitals and Medical OEM industry at MEDICA 2018 (Hall 11/Booth C68), together with their solution partners, Alphatron Medical Innovations, ClinicAll, BeWell Innovations and INTER. 

Products and services from its EMC and Automotive Divisions will be showcased by Schaffner at Electronica 2018. EMC filters specifically designed for medical devices offer end users simple solutions to EMC issues and get product certifications without adding any additional risk to the patient.
