The best place to network for manufacturers and suppliers? 🤝 #COMPAMED, of course!
BYTEC Medizintechnik GmbH revealed this to us in an interview. 💬 What do you like most about COMPAMED?
👉 Check out the full report (link in the comments)!
👓 Who of you relies on glasses to see clearly? 🧐 Sure, they're not exactly #HighTech, but they get the job done.
But consider this: 40 million people worldwide are blind, and another 124 million live with visual impairments where standard vision correction isn't an option.
That's where innovative visual implants come in. Thanks to advances in microtechnology, these solutions are becoming more sophisticated and compact - opening new possibilities for vision restoration.
Curious about these developments? We've taken a look at the latest innovations in this field. 👇 🔄 #COMPAMED
High-tech that makes healthcare possible
#COMPAMED2024 has shown us one thing clearly: without micro- and nanotechnology, modern healthcare wouldn’t be where it is today. From precise diagnostics to smart wearables – these essential parts & pieces are the building blocks that keep the systems of medical progress running smoothly.
We’re proud to have exactly the right partners on board with the IVAM Microtechnology Network, whose expertise makes a true difference.
Hope you also made it to the COMPAMED HIGH-TECH FORUM, right? 😉

Small, smaller, microtechnology at #COMPAMED2024
Microtechnology is an integral part of COMPAMED, because it enables so much in medicine. For example, implants or devices that are worn directly on the body. Miniaturised and high-precision components are also used in surgery and laboratories.
At COMPAMED, we keep an eye on products that are getting smaller and smaller. 🔎 What did you marvel at the most?

⭐️DAY 1 of COMPAMED 2024!⭐️
Very excited to be back in Düsseldorf and glad to have already met some familiar faces. Can already feel excitement of what should be a great show.
I will be around Hall 8a/8b so if you see me, shout “CMO ROW” or drop me a message and we can arrange time to speak.
📸Shout out once again for the commitment shown by people I ask to take my photo
