About the event:
Additive Manufacturing has transformed various sectors, notably healthcare, by enabling the production of customised products and rapid innovation in medical devices, prosthetics, and bio-printed tissues. However, integrating AM into European healthcare faces challenges due to evolving regulations and the need for standardised policies to ensure safety, efficacy, and quality.
Europe leads in adopting regulatory measures for emerging technologies, but AM’s rapid advancement requires ongoing dialogue and regulatory adaptation. The 3dp Basel and EHFAM aim to facilitate crucial discussions on integrating AM technologies into European healthcare. The event will serve as a critical platform for key stakeholders to collaborate and navigate the complexities of integrating AM into mainstream healthcare practices and will:
- Address regulatory challenges and drive innovation
- Showcase practical applications and real-world impacts of AM
- Establish standards for safety and efficacy
- Strengthen collaboration between academia, industry, and regulatory bodies
The Symposium on 3D Printing for Life Sciences (3dp Basel) will focus on bioprinting, the medical device industry, 3D printing at the point of care in hospitals, and a pitching contest for 3D printing in life sciences. The European Healthcare Forum for AM (EHFAM) will examine the potential for synergistic approaches, practice, and policy. It will also address pricing, reimbursement, and quality assurance strategies, as well as practical applications and the impacts on public healthcare systems. In addition, it will promote innovation and collaboration in line with EU health policies and enhance patient involvement through education and awareness.
We look forward to welcoming you to Switzerland this September!
