By May 26, 2020, medical device manufacturers active in Europe must be fully compliant with the new EU Medical Device Regulations.

In this session, we'll discuss the current status of the EU MDR/IVD regulations and explore compliance challenges for industry.

Topics covered include:
  • What significant impacts will medical device manufacturers see on their current business?

  • Effect on IVD companies who are now 80% under direct review by Notified Bodies
