The MEDICA TECH FORUM 2025: Interactive knowledge platform for the medical technology sector

The MEDICA TECH FORUM is more than just a lecture series – it is an interactive platform for everyone who actively shapes the future of medical technology. It offers in-depth insights into current technologies and developments in medical technology, from artificial intelligence to robotics – clearly explained and presented with a practical focus.

Leading experts from industry, research, and practice will present pioneering approaches and provide insights into specific applications. Many sessions will include Q&A opportunities and encourage direct dialogue with the speakers. Selected sessions will also feature moderated discussion formats that invite active participation and exchange of ideas. This creates a forum that informs, inspires, and opens space for new perspectives.
