MedTech Brainport MEET-Up 2025

Healthcare is under pressure: demand is growing, costs are rising, and staff shortages continue to increase. Innovation is therefore more urgent than ever. Disruptive technologies and new business models offer opportunities to make healthcare smarter, more efficient, more accessible, and more people-centred. At the MedTech Brainport MEET-Up 2025 on 2 December, we will explore together how these developments can contribute to future-proof healthcare.

Brainport Development, LifetecZONe and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM) are bringing together the medtech ecosystem of the South Netherlands at the High Tech Campus Eindhoven. We will round off the year with inspiration, new collaborations, and a festive networking reception, while looking ahead to what 2026 will bring.
