EMDDA organises structured professional meetings where selected medical device manufacturers present their products to a network of independent European distributors active in the hospital sector.

These meetings are designed to facilitate efficient product evaluation and foster long-term commercial partnerships across European markets.

Next EMDDA Meeting | EMDDA Autumn Meeting Padova

Join our next meeting connecting medical device manufacturers with European distributors.

Medical device manufacturers

Companies developing innovative medical devices and seeking reliable distribution partners in European healthcare markets.

EMDDA members

Independent distributors interested in evaluating new technologies relevant to their national healthcare markets.

How to participate

Submit your product information

Manufacturers submit a brief presentation of their medical device, including technical details and market positioning, to the EMDDA office for preliminary review.

The proposal is reviewed and shared with EMDDA members to assess its relevance within their respective markets.

Selected manufacturers are invited to present their products during dedicated meeting sessions, either in person or online.

Following the meeting, manufacturers and distributors continue discussions and negotiate distribution agreements independently.
