About
The MedTech space is constantly changing. Most industry conferences don’t help you keep up; they pack people into crowded event spaces and rely on awkward, transactional networking. MPP is different.
MPP brings MedTech professionals together to learn, connect, and help shape what’s next. You’ll leave with deeper insight into the trends and technologies transforming the industry, stronger relationships with the people behind the innovation, and fresh momentum from conversations that spark real progress. Because in MedTech, better connections and better ideas can lead to innovations that save lives.
To top it off, we’re hosting an MPP Ireland Cocktail Reception at The Galmont Hotel after the conference: An Evening of Irish Tradition & Industry Innovation
Sunset views over Lough Atalia and Galway Bay on the spectacular 4th-floor terrace, live traditional music by acclaimed musician Enda McCabe, creating a warm, memorable atmosphere perfect for genuine networking and conversations that stick.
