BISTAS LARGAS - "PARA VER MAIS DO QUE O ÓBVIO"

With the Action Groups of the MDevNet Network.

Description of the “BISTAS LARGAS” Program promoted by CINTESIS - Centro de Investigação em Tecnologias e Serviços de Saúde
To create new knowledge, solutions or products through research, to find new business ideas and to deepen the technological and market variables relevant to the creation of a new company, it is not enough to focus only on the nuclear areas, such as business plans and sources of financing . It is also necessary to invest in peripheral areas, less visible, often forgotten, but that protect and/or enhance the new business. It is to think of the improvement of the "satellite" competences of the entrepreneurs/innovators in the area of Health that CINTESIS will organize a set of three sessions of interactive training and discussion dedicated to the areas of Intellectual Property, Regulation/Certification and Communication. Under this initiative, manuals will be created in the three areas mentioned, to be distributed by the participants and to different stakeholders of the city of Porto.

Session "Regulation/Certification"
The second session, focused on the Regulation/Certification, has the partnership of the MDevNet Network: National Network for Knowledge Transfer on Medical Devices, and will be attended by the respective Action Groups of this network, which will meet on this occasion for the last time in a open format for all those who want to share their conclusions.

MDevNet Network
The third, and last, Working Group of the Action Groups will have a different dynamic from the first two since it will count on the joint discussion and between the 3 Action Groups, meeting in the same space. On the one hand, this model will allow the discussion of the themes of each Action Group to be extended to the remaining Groups, collecting feedback on the conclusions of each Group. On the other hand, it will also allow the preliminary version of the Manual of "Best Practices for Technology Transfer in the Technology Based Medical Devices Sector", worked by Fraunhofer Portugal AICOS based on the inputs of the Network as well as in a research and bibliographic synthesis, to be presented to all the participants of the Groups and to collect impressions and suggestions from them so that later incorporate this feedback in the final version of the Manual, in order to bring the document closer to the needs of its audience. This Meeting will also include the participation of entities and personalities experienced in the certification of medical devices, which may help to complement or clarify specific aspects or complement the perspectives of the Action Groups.

The reports of the first and second meetings can be viewed through their respective pages on the MDevNet Network website:
