TechMed Event 5 November

Events

The University of Twente’s TechMed Centre brings healthcare, technology, and society together. Through a diverse range of workshops, conferences, symposiums, and community activities, we offer opportunities to learn, exchange perspectives, and collaborate across disciplines. Our events connect researchers, clinicians, students, industry partners, and policy stakeholders who share an interest in improving healthcare through technology. Whether you want to explore current developments, engage with professionals in the field, or contribute to discussions on future healthcare challenges, the TechMed Centre provides an open and accessible environment.

The TechMed Event and the internal TechMed Research Day are part of the centre’s recurring programme, offering structured moments throughout the year for the community to connect, share work, and engage in discussions around health and technology.

    External events

    In addition to hosting our own events, we also welcome external organisations to organise their technical medical‑related activities within the centre. With flexible facilities, a supportive ecosystem, and close links to the academic and clinical community, the TechMed Centre offers a suitable setting for meetings, workshops, symposia, and other events focused on health and technology.

    Below you can find an overview of external medical technology events taking place. This overview reflects the diversity of activities happening within the wider MedTech landscape, organised by various institutions, networks, and communities.
