From Sunday, April 16 to Thursday, April 20, a MedTech delegation led by Brabantse Ontwikkelings Maatschappij (BOM), LIOFOost NL and the Nederlands Consulaat Generaal (CG) will go on an entrepreneurial trip to Med Tech Minnesota.

The intensive program should give a good impression of the U.S. Med Tech Ecosystem. The program will provide insight into “Doing Business in Med Tech Minnesota” through company visits in and around Minneapolis, special networking events with U.S. business partners, and, in addition, individual matchmaking with business leads will be organized for each company. Also, part of the program will be visiting a science fair.

During the entrepreneurial journey, in addition to the organizations mentioned above, the American and Dutch Minnesota partners will be ready to make the participants “business ready” and, more specifically, elaborate on their company’s goals for the US.

This mission is part of a long-term program organized by BOM, LIOF, Oost NL, and NL CG Chicago on behalf of Trade & Innovate NL, which ties in with the broader programming for the US on Life Sciences and Health. The aim is to build a sustainable relationship with Minnesota to strengthen Med Tech clusters in both countries. An earlier part of this was the luncheon event at the Medica fair in Düsseldorf to unite all parties.
