A proof of the growing international recognition of Norwegian medtech expertise comes with the fact that MIE2011, the 23rd International Conference of the European Federation for Medical Informatics, will take place in Oslo on August 28th – 31st 2011.
One particular aim of the MIE2011, which attracts 400+ delegates is to ensure that the potential of eHealth applications are fully explored through the “MIE village” initiative, which is being organized with input from medical technology clusters in Norway, Scandinavia and Europe. Under the Village Initiative, presentations of prototypes, innovative products and project results from smaller Nordic companies are being encouraged together with ongoing academic R&D projects with commercialization potential. EU-funded R&D eHealth successes will also be presented. Larger established companies, while excluded from the village initiative will still be able to participate in the commercial Exhibition.
