Join us at DeviceTalks Boston on May 10-11 to hear how medical device companies are propping open supply lines and ensuring a steady flow of products to customers in a constantly changing world.

Sharing best practices is more important than ever because supply chain challenges aren’t expected to diminish post-pandemic. That’s because superstorms, fires, droughts and other extreme events driven by climate change are already straining the industry’s supply chain — and it could get a lot worse.

(Go to DeviceTalks Boston’s site to register!) 

Over the two-day meeting we’ll hear how companies large and small are adapting to new demands, including:

  • How Viant and Vapotherm combined forces to meet unforeseen demands brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • What steps Boston Scientific, DePuy Synthes and other large device makers are making to supply chain challenges;
  • Why 3D printing plays to the strengths of medical device manufacturers.

Our Manufacturing, Markets and Supply Train track is just one piece of our expansive DeviceTalks program. We have a full lineup of exceptional speakers and can’t wait to have you join us this May.
