An exclusive workshop in which we will work together to understand the investment challenges in the UK for the MedTech sector.
As part of CPI’s MARRS (MedTech Accelerator: Rapid Regulatory Support) programme, a series of workshops are being hosted to understand the key investment challenges in the UK; they will offer attendees a unique opportunity to contribute directly to a government-funded report, which may contribute to future policy. We're pleased to host Cardiff's workshop at our office in Cardiff Bay.
At each venue there will be two workshops, one where SMEs will work together to communicate the challenges faced in securing investment in the UK and develop potential solutions. The second will be exclusively for investors who will help us to understand their point of view and their potential solutions. Together, with input from both side of the “fence” we can look at solutions that will move the needle for all.
At each session, lunch will be provided offering a valuable opportunity for investors and SMEs to connect and collaborate.
What to expect from the workshops:
- Expert-led roundtables: Focussed discussions on funding challenges, and investment strategies
- Government-backed impact: Insights from attendees will directly inform a government report on MedTech challenges and opportunities
- Networking opportunities: Build connections with industry leaders, SMEs, and policymakers over a networking lunch
