What role is medical technology given in the new Life Science Strategy?
During Medicinteknikdagarna, Medtech4Health will focus on the national Life Science Strategy and the Research and Innovation Bill. What place will medical technology occupy, and how do we move from strategy to action?
Join us on the third day of Medicinteknikdagarna to hear from Jeanette Edblad, Head of the Government’s Life Science Office, and Ulrica Fjärstedt, Chair of the MTP Council. Together, they will provide an overview of the place of medical technology in the updated Life Science Strategy and the Research and Innovation Bill.
This will be followed by a panel discussion focusing on how the strategy can be implemented in practice in terms of the orderly introduction of medical technology. Participants include Reidar Gårdebäck, Swedish Medtech, Anna Ax, Senior Advisor at the Ministry of Climate and Business, Maria Tunebjer, Head of Research and Innovation at Region Uppsala, and Penilla Gunther, Fokus Patient.
Finally, there will be time for questions from the audience.
