Medical Device Regulation #4 - Software lifecycle

Do you work for a digital health startup? Are you even a medical product? Then you might be familiar with the term Medical Device Directive (MDD) and its successor Medical Device Regulation (MDR) that will become active in May 2020. This might sound like a dry topic, but it will have a real impact on the medical device field. We in Vivy have learned a lot by going throughout the whole process ourselves. We want to share our experiences with the health startup community.

We believe that health startups are stronger together and everybody benefits from sharing insights. Together with Berlin healthcare startups, we have initiated a series of events that focus on MDR requirements, where the goal is to bring experts together and engage participants to gain practical insights.

Together with the lovely people at MX Healthcare, we will host a fourth MDR deep dive and workshop Meetup focusing on the software lifecycle of medical devices. This time our moderators will start with sharing their story and insights on becoming a medical product class 2 and after attendees will benefit from the group's shared knowledge and experience. This event will be especially valuable for quality managers, consultants, regulatory and compliance managers, product owners and product designers.
