2024 MedTech Conference

Please join the Arizona Technology Council for its 8th Annual MedTech Conference on Tuesday, May 21, 2024.

“Bridging Patients and Technology for Healthier Futures”

When you are unwell, diagnostics and medical devices help healthcare professionals restore you to good health as quickly as possible. Should you need surgery, medical technologies will ensure you get the care you need in a way that is safe and minimally invasive. This conference will highlight unique and unusual collaborations between the technology industry and the medical field and what lies ahead for the future.

Medical technology is a booming industry, projected to be worth over $800 billion (USD) in 2030, globally. Opportunities fueled by technological advancements and an aging population that has higher expectations for their healthcare are plentiful, but so are challenges including scaling up production, regulatory compliance, patient adoption, and how personal data is used.

Join us on May 21 to hear from and visit with industry and MedTech product development experts at our annual MedTech conference.
