Medical Technology Ireland Conference returns on September 23rd and 24th, bringing together industry experts to highlight medtech opportunities and challenges.

Hear from medtech experts

The conference begins with an opening address from Eoghan Ó Faoláin, Director of Irish Medtech, before Damian Carr, Founder of Eyedea MedTech Education, sets the tone with a keynote examining the future of advanced medical technologies.

Across the programme, delegates will hear from experts representing industry, academia and Government as they tackle the issues that matter most. Sessions will explore the outlook for medtech in 2026 and beyond, opportunities and regulatory considerations surrounding artificial intelligence, plus the journey from research to commercial success.

Technical excellence remains a core focus, with dedicated sessions covering ISO 10993, digital labelling, biological evaluation and programme delivery in complex, high-growth environments, providing practical insights that delegates can apply within their own organisations.

Conference highlights and discussions

Day two opens with the Women in MedTech session, celebrating leadership and career development across the sector. Attention then turns to international expansion with Scaling Beyond Ireland, where global experts share practical strategies for companies looking to establish and grow in overseas markets.

One of the highlights of this year’s conference sees former elite athlete and RTÉ pundit Cora Staunton join Yvonne Comer to discuss leading through pressure, change and setbacks, drawing powerful parallels between high-performance sport and business leadership.

The conference concludes by examining one of the industry’s most pressing challenges: building resilient medical device supply chains.
