This 2nd Medtech Summit exceeded my expectations: Presentations by a selection of the truly most interesting European start-ups, and plenty of networking opportunities with leading venture capital investors and strategic players in the field.

For a VC company like Gimv who wants to become more active in the future in Medtech investing, this was an excellent conference to get an overview about the sector in Europe and to meet with the CEO's of the selected companies in person. Future trends were also addressed in a very interesting speech by Medtronic's Senior VP Medicine & Technology, Steve Oesterle.
