Together with our partners, MGA Medical is proud to once again co-host the “3D Printing in Life Sciences Pitch Contest” as part of EHFAM 2025.
This unique competition gives early-stage researchers the chance to present their work to a broad audience of experts, innovators, and industry leaders — and gain visibility, recognition, and new connections in the process.
What’s it all about?
The pitch contest is designed to highlight innovative research in the field of 3D Printing for Life Sciences. If your project is new, bold, or promising — whether already published or still in progress — we want to hear about it!
Selected finalists will pitch their work live at EHFAM 2025 in Basel on June 27, 2025.
In just 3 minutes and with a maximum of 3 slides, you’ll have the chance to convince a live audience of the innovation, impact, and relevance of your research.
The audience will vote on the top three pitches, and the winner will receive the prestigious 3D Printing in Life Sciences Award Basel 2025.
