MEDevice Forum San Diego | September 13-14, 2011 | San Diego Convention Center, Upper Level Ballroom | San Diego, CA

UBM Canon, the world’s leading exposition organizer, conference producer, and media company for the international medical device manufacturing industry, is pleased to introduce MEDevice Forum.

 

Join us in beautiful San Diego for this exclusive networking opportunity with one of the nation’s elite medical device audiences. This comprehensive conference series and intimate supplier showcase will provide a unique setting for in-depth meetings and valuable business opportunities.

 

At nearly $95 billion in 2010, the U.S. medical device market represents a healthy and consistent marketplace
for manufacturers. California is the leading state for sector shipments by value, at $16 billion outranking
the next state by three times. With more than 70,000 people, medical device manufacturing companies in
California directly employ more people than any other state in the country, plus California employs more than
twice as many biotech workers than any other state.


San Diego has been ranked as one of the top clusters in overall life sciences (medical devices, biotech, and
pharmaceuticals) as well as the top biotechnology cluster in the country, largely due to its economic impact,
comprehensive R&D, and recent growth/expansion over the last decade. Altogether, the life science industry
in San Diego is responsible for 55,600 jobs and $5.8 billion of gross product in the metro region.

 

MEDevice Conferences

MEDevice Forum is a dedicated conference and mini-expo series being held in 2011 in San Diego as well as other locations in 2012 and beyond. MEDevice Forums will feature leading-edge conference topics specific to certain specialties/technologies. From a conference-led event perspective, promotion will be to titles and medical OEMs specific to the conference content. From an “expo” perspective, we promote a forum where leading suppliers offering key technology to these specialty areas are featured.

 

MEDevice Supplier Showcase
Additionally, the supplier showcase will be promoted to San Diego County’s medical OEMs who comprise one of the heaviest concentrations of medical design and manufacturing in the United States. The supplier showcase is positioned to prospective attendees as the region’s very own “mini-MD&M event”.

 

Due to the intimate nature of this conference-led event and ballroom space constraints, participation is strictly limited to 90 exhibiting medical industry suppliers. Space will be offered through a combination of first-come, first-served booth package reservations and matching key product/technology offerings to ensure cohesion with the conference.
