MedTech Innovation Series: Design for Compliance

Join us for a first-of-its-kind workshop series exploring medical device design and manufacturing. Whether you're an early-stage founder, designer, engineer or innovator this workshop will equip you with essential tools and insights to take your idea from prototype to production-ready.. compliantly.

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
This series offers two deep-dive sessions, each focused on a critical element (or component) of the medtech product development journey - design for manufacturing and design compliance including usability and human factors engineering. Attend either session or register for the full day for the most comprehensive experience.

PART 1: DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURING (DFM)
How do you ensure your device can be made efficiently, affordably and at scale? This session explores how to design with manufacturing in mind from the outset. You'll learn:

• Cost-saving design choices in tooling, plastics and electronics
• Integrating manufacturability into early-stage design
• Collaborating with manufacturers to streamline development
• Common DFM pitfalls and how to avoid them

PART 2: COMPLIANCE IN DESIGN
Compliance is a constant companion from the very start of your technology development journey. Learn how to integrate quality, usability and regulatory thinking from day one. You'll learn:

• Structuring a compliant design process
• Core QMS concepts
• Integrating usability and human factors engineering
• Selecting compliant manufacturers and preparing key documents
• Navigating regulatory bodies and risk classifications

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
For anyone developing new medical technologies, founders and startups, engineers and product designers. Spaces are limited. Early registration is strongly encouraged.
