TechMed Summer Meeting

TechMed Summer Meeting

We are still working and living in particularly challenging times due to the COVID-19 crisis. Despite the impact this crisis has on all of us, it has also created opportunities for the TechMed community and we are proud of the results it has delivered. For example, joint initiatives with our strategic partnerships within the various TechMed ecosystems have led to accelerated implementation of technological innovations that have an impact on future healthcare.

Now that the COVID-19 rules are being relaxed, it is also time to meet again in real life and to (re)explore the campus and the TechMed facilities. We can imagine that you are curious about this TechMed community and what the TechMed Centre can offer you and above all: you want to meet your TechMed colleagues and get together! We have deliberately chosen to organize this after the summer holidays, so that we have more certainty that this will take place physically together with a large group of colleagues.

This year, the TechMed Summer Meeting program will be all about meeting each other and exploring TechMed and the UT Campus. We promise you that it will be a varied, original and above all pleasant Summer Meeting, with dinner and drinks.
