MedTech in focus: Building a successful ecosystem for innovative startups

You're invited to a panel discussion on the innovative MedTech landscape in Australia and the scope for collaboration with the French ecosystem.

From investment to implementation, through research to commercial applications, our expert panellists will share their perspectives of the MedTech ecosystem on what it takes to build the next unicorn.

This event is the result of inspiring collaboration with the Australian-French Association for Research and Innovation (AFRAN) and the French National Centre for Scientific Research (known as CNRS).

The panel discussion will be followed by a cocktail networking session open by Francois de Meneval, French Tech AU Co-President.

Join us in exploring new ideas and creating meaningful connections that will leave a lasting impact. (Please note this event has limited capacity.)
