MassMEDIC and DeviceTalks Boston announce partnership to host MedTech Showcase at DeviceTalks Boston in 2018 and 2019

WTWH Media, the parent company of MassDevice.com, Medical Design & Outsourcing and DeviceTalks, is proud to announce an agreement to bring one of the medtech industry’s most respected investor’s conference into its DeviceTalks Boston event.

For the next two years, MassMEDIC will host its MedTech Showcase at DeviceTalks Boston in 2018 and 2019, according to the agreement. DeviceTalks, founded in 2011, is an industry-leading conference held annually in three key medical device markets. It originated as an offshoot of MassDevice.com, one of the most widely read and respected publications in the medical device world. DeviceTalks Boston will be held on October 8-10, 2018 at the Boston Westin Waterfront Hotel.

MassMEDIC, the industry council representing the interests of the medical device industry in Massachusetts, is a leading voice for this critical industry in the Bay State. The organization boasts more than 350 company members across New England. Massachusetts is one of the top medtech markets in the world and a global leader in medical innovation.

“I’m honored to work with MassMEDIC on helping to preserve and grow the incredible legacy of this event,” said DeviceTalks founder Brian Johnson. “The MedTech Showcase has launched hundreds of life changing technologies into the world and fostered the formation of new and innovative companies. In fact, I conceived the idea for MassDevice.com while attending this conference 10 years ago. I think it’s the jewel of investor’s conferences in the region. We look forward to giving it the attention it deserves.”

“This partnership is great news for the medtech community,” said Tom Sommer, President of MassMEDIC. “The MassMEDIC/DeviceTalks collaboration will attract leading medtech investors, manufacturers, and suppliers from around the world and provide additional exposure for top-flight medtech start-ups from this region,” he continued.

An official announcement of the deal will be made at this year’s MedTech Showcase on October 27th at the Westin Waltham hotel.
