How can Europe ensure that groundbreaking health innovations actually reach patients?
Between sessions at the MedTech Forum 2026, we sat down with Flora Giorgio, Head of Unit D3Medical Devices at the European Commission's DG SANTE. In this conversation, we unpack some of the most consequential files in medtech policy right now: from the revision of the Medical Devices Regulation and the In Vitro Diagnostics Regulation, to EUDAMED implementation and the European Commission’s breakthrough pilot.
From our booth at the MedTech Forum 2026, we sat down with Prof. Marc Peeters, Professor of Oncology at the University of Antwerp and board member of AZ Maria Middelares and Ziekenhuis Geel. We discussed today’s challenges and opportunities in medtech, and AI emerged as a clear leitmotif throughout the conversation. Timely, as discussions on the interplay between the AI Act and the MDR/IVDR revision continue to unfold.
