The Medical Technology Association of India (MTaI) to organise its maiden event – “MTaI MedTech Summit 2017: Transforming Patients’ Lives in India” on September 15, 2017 in New Delhi.
There is very little understanding about the MedTech sector in India due to which it neither gets the impetus that is required for its growth, nor the recognition that it rightfully deserves. MTaI is, therefore, organising the summit that will provide patients, industry and doctors with a platform to interact with policy makers, which will highlight the uniqueness, nuances and significance of medical technology.
Pavan Choudary, Director General, MTaI, says, “It is time to de-mystify the MedTech sector and MTaI has taken the initiative to engage various stakeholders to make them understand how medical technology transforms the quality of patients’ lives. This patient-industry-doctor-government interface will be an educative, illuminating and a first for India. Medical technology is miracle technology, and MTaI invites you to this MedTech Summit 2017 to witness this miracle.”
The summit will include sessions on cardiovascular, ophthalmology, orthopaedic implants, oncology, endoscopic surgery and bariatric surgery as focus themes and reinstate how quality is critical for better outcomes in these situations.
Reportedly, the sessions will be delivered and moderated by key presenters which will include government officials from key ministries, leaders from the MedTech industry, doctors and patients.
