Program
The session topics have already been finalized. Stay tuned for the speakers—you’re in for a treat.

Technological excellence alone is not enough—what matters most is its successful transfer into healthcare. The opening session will focus on strategic issues in medical technology: How can Germany and Bavaria remain internationally competitive? What role do partnerships between industry, academia, and government play? And how can innovations be sustainably established for the benefit of patients?
Robots and intelligent surgical devices were once just an idea, but today they play an increasingly important role in clinical practice. They have the potential to optimize—or even completely transform—clinical applications. In this session, we will examine the key factors for successfully integrating innovative technologies such as robotics and AI into clinical practice. We will discuss topics such as addressing clinical needs and whether—and at what point—a hospital-industry collaboration makes sense. We will learn about a best-practice example of a successful innovation journey from research to everyday clinical practice and will also explore how Europe and Germany can continue to strengthen their leadership role in the medtech sector, including with new technologies such as robotics and AI.
Our Startup Pitch Contest showcases startups with innovative solutions in the fields of health tech and healthcare. In this session, the finalists from the preliminary round will pitch their ideas to our high-caliber jury. The contest offers a platform to learn about the latest technologies and solutions that can transform and improve healthcare. It also provides valuable opportunities to network with the innovators of tomorrow and offers insights into current trends and developments in the health tech sector. The winners will be honored during the evening state reception in the Historic City Hall Hall in Nuremberg. The session will also feature the winning teams from the previous Healthcare Hackathon. As “Future Start-ups,” they showcase promising innovations and solutions that have the potential to play a key role in shaping the healthcare of tomorrow.
Neurotechnologies are increasingly making the leap from research laboratories to clinical practice. Advances in the detection of neural signals, brain-computer interfaces, neurostimulation, smart implants, and AI-powered data analysis are opening up new possibilities for the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders. What was long considered science fiction is now, step by step, becoming a medical reality. This session highlights current developments across the entire value chain—from the measurement and interpretation of neural signals to innovative implants and personalized therapies. Experts from research, industry, and clinical practice will discuss technological breakthroughs, challenges in clinical translation, and the role of artificial intelligence as a driver of innovation.
Menopause is one of the most significant—yet still under-researched—areas of women’s health. Nevertheless, it affects all women. At the same time, advances in artificial intelligence, wearables, digital biomarkers, multi-omics, and digital health applications are opening up new possibilities for understanding hormonal changes and individual symptom progression based on data and addressing them in a targeted manner. This session explores menopause as a field of innovation at the intersection of medical technology, digital health, and precision medicine, and discusses how data-driven technologies can help close gender-specific gaps in care. The focus is on current research approaches, technological developments, and issues related to evidence, data quality, regulation, and gender-sensitive AI. The goal is to highlight the potential and challenges of innovation-driven menopause care for research, industry, and the healthcare sector.
The journey of innovative medical devices to the patient does not end with successful product development or regulatory approval. Their actual adoption in clinical practice requires close collaboration between manufacturers, healthcare professionals, and other stakeholders throughout the innovation process. This session highlights the key challenges in translating medical innovations into patient care—from generating clinical evidence to user-friendliness, reimbursement, and integration into clinical workflows, all the way to user acceptance. By comparing the perspectives of industry and the medical community, this session identifies key hurdles and practical strategies to accelerate the integration of innovations into patient care while ensuring safety, efficacy, and sustainable implementation within the healthcare system.
The future of medical technology is shaped by international collaboration. This session opens up new perspectives across national borders and brings together stakeholders from various innovation ecosystems. International delegations, partner networks, and European innovation initiatives demonstrate how collaboration generates new momentum, facilitates knowledge transfer, and paves the way for sustainable innovations in healthcare.
How can AI agents, clinical decision support, and data-driven medical devices improve diagnostics, care, and innovation—and what evidence, regulation, interoperability, and clinical validation are needed in Europe? Over the course of 90 minutes, brief presentations by leading European experts from the fields of technology, clinical practice, research, regulation, and medtech will bridge the gap between a grand vision and concrete implementation.
Personalized medicine tailors prevention, diagnosis, and treatment more closely to a person’s individual characteristics—such as genetics, biomarkers, lifestyle, and disease progression. This session will explore how data-driven methods, AI, and modern diagnostics can help detect diseases earlier, select treatments more precisely, and reduce side effects. At the same time, the session will examine the prerequisites for implementing these approaches in healthcare: reliable data, clear regulatory frameworks, data protection, reimbursement, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Personalized medicine will become increasingly important in the future because it can treat patients more effectively, use resources in the healthcare system more efficiently, and bring innovations into practice more quickly.

At the conclusion of the conference, the past two days will be reflected upon from various perspectives. Representatives from the sessions, the accompanying trade exhibition, and the partnering program will share their key impressions, discuss major trends, and provide insights into the topics that shaped the conference. The closing session not only summarizes key insights but also highlights the new contacts, collaborations, and initial ideas that have emerged.
The healthcare sector relies on materials and supply chains that are increasingly subject to uncertainty. Shortages, price fluctuations, and geopolitical disruptions highlight just how vulnerable this sector is. At the same time, the plastics and chemicals used in healthcare also affect the health of patients and staff. Circular economy approaches—from reusable products to new business models—can reduce dependence on critical resources, create economic value, and make healthcare safer and more environmentally sustainable.
With support from “Health Care Without Harm Europe,” this event brings together experts from the healthcare sector and industry to share international best practices. Join us and discover how the circular economy can help:
-
strengthen the security and resilience of healthcare supply chains
- create economic value
- protect the health of patients and staff by reducing exposure to harmful plastics and chemicals
You’ll learn concrete examples of what works in practice.
Regulatory requirements for market access of medical devices have evolved significantly in recent years in both Europe and the United States. While the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR) imposes stricter requirements for clinical evidence, technical documentation, and post-market surveillance, the U.S. FDA takes a risk-based and process-oriented approach with its own requirements for approval, quality management, and clinical data. This session compares the regulatory frameworks of both markets, highlights typical challenges for manufacturers, and outlines strategies for streamlining development and approval processes. The goal is to help companies decide which market is best suited for initial market entry and how regulatory requirements can be integrated into product development at an early stage.
More visions. More global perspectives. More momentum.
