Medilink UK supports Mediplas 2012
05/05/2012
Medilink UK has become a supporting partner for this year’s Mediplas show.
Being held at the NEC, Birmingham, 25-26 September 2012, Mediplas
will focus on the manufacturing of plastic parts for the medical industry. The
exhibition, which will cover all areas of the medical plastics supply chain,
differentiates itself from general plastics shows, because it brings to the
forefront aspects and considerations of medical device manufacturing that do
not feature in production for other industries. It is also different from
existing medical device events because it specialises in plastics.
Medilink UK is a leader in developing business networks for
medical and healthcare companies. It works with members to increase their
viability in the market and grow their medical business through technology and
knowledge transfer from Universities and the NHS and achieves this by bridging
the gap between those who innovate and those who manufacture.
Medilink West Midlands’ Connectivity Director Chris Dyke, who will
also be presenting at the Mediplas conference, said, "The medical plastics
supply chain is a dynamic, growing market, and there are plenty of innovative
firms that are paving the way for new processes, materials and products for
patient treatment. It’s great to see a new show this year, which recognises the
unique challenges, and opportunities this sector faces, and Medilink is
delighted to work with Mediplas to raise awareness of the show. I’m also
looking forward to bringing our expertise to the show, both as an exhibitor and
as a speaker.”
Delighted
to be welcoming Medlink on board, Duncan Wood, COO at Rapid News
Communications, the show's organiser, commented, "It is great to have the support of Medilink on our
launch event. We value their contribution and support and look forward to
delivering a successful event in partnership with the medical plastics
community."
Further support for Mediplas 2012 comes from Med-Tech Innovation,
the magazine and website for the UK and Irish medical device research, design
and manufacturing community. Both Medilink UK and Med-Tech Innovation will be
co-exhibiting on the show floor. Another media partner is Medical Plastics
News, the essential source of technology breakthroughs and industry
intelligence for manufacturers of plastic medical devices and components.
Mediplas will run alongside TCT Live, MM, MEMS and NANO Live UK, plus the PPMA and Sensing
Technology shows with a "one ticket for all shows" policy.
