1st DIH.HealthDay.si webinar 2020: Innovations on the way to healthcare markets, in Slovenia and abroad
The biggest challenge awaiting startups in healthcare is how to meet the regulatory requirements. Startup companies generally do not possess the systems and knowledge to manage the entire development process within regulatory frameworks. Typical time-to-market for a medical device is 3 to 5 years, while it can be even longer for bio innovations or new drugs.
The biggest challenge for healthcare innovators, whether they are manufacturers of new medical devices, advanced physicians with the support of hospitals, and even large established companies, is meeting the regulatory framework. In other industries, the two main functions in companies are technological on the one hand, and marketing on the other, while in healthcare the regulatory function is actually more important than the first two. At DIH.HealthDay.si, we tackled the challenge in 2019, and this workshop will be an important step forward for all companies that want to meet all requirements as quickly and efficiently as possible and then successfully enter hospitals, health centers and pharmacies. At this workshop we present an exceptional set of speakers:
Mateja Urlep, author of the Guidelines for the Inclusion of Innovations in the Slovenian Health System (book in the making), and president of the Think Tank DIH.HealthDay.si
Igor Rogelj, director of ArrowFast, Cosylab's new special unit to help innovators in the field of medical devices, also a new partner of HealthDay.si
representatives of Slovenian health insurance companies on the new reality of digital healthcare
This workshop is intended for companies registered in DIH.HealthDay.si, but we also accept unregistered guests, especially foreign. For more information or suggestions on cooperation write to info@healthday.si.
