Microelectronic Medical Implants: Products, Technologies & Opportunities

A new report just published by http://www.researchandmarkets.com indicates that the global market for microelectronic medical implants should reach over $37.6 billion in 2021 from over $24.6 billion in 2016 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8% from 2016 to 2021 (for more info about the report, see below).

In this context of rapidly growing market figures, why not attend our event on the challenges of Medical Electronics Devices Packaging (https://www.imaps.org.uk/events/medical-device-packaging-workshop/)?

Like all IMAPS-UK workshops, the programme follows a well established format of core topic talks in the morning, followed by case studies in the afternoon, to stimulate discussions.
