IMed is a MedTech regulatory and quality consultancy, specialising in medical devices, software as a medical device and IVDs. The company has been a Medilink Midlands Member for over 3 years and Medilink has offered consistent and varied support to IMed during that time,
by putting the company in touch with relevant client and partner opportunities, organising events and in promoting IMed Consultancy to our membership.
In recognition of IMed’s regular utilisation of Medilink Midlands webinars and events, keeping their team in touch with industry changes and free training, IMed wanted to give back to the sector, which has supported their recent business growth. So, they launched a series of regulatory clinics to MedTech manufacturers with key regulatory questions and queries, which they ran all through 2021.
IMed offered free 30-minute appointments on various subjects including one on IVDR, in an effort to help IVD manufacturers resolve confusion after changes to EU IVDR deadlines. As part of IMed’s Medilink membership, Medilink Midlands was able to recommend through its promotional channels, including the Medilink Midlands website and newsletter.
Another way in which Medilink Midlands helps its members is by providing exhibition opportunities. As part of their membership, IMed have always supported Medilink Midlands’ annual Innovation Day, initially attending as delegates. But in May 2022, they were able to exhibit for the first time. Innovation Day saw over 170 delegates from across the Midlands life science sector come together to network and learn all about the latest sector developments.
IMed’s team made several material new client and partner connections, on the day and took an active part in promoting other members services too.
IMed was also one of 30 Member and Patron companies that exhibited as part of Innovation Day and, as a result, the company has been able to form new partnerships with a number other Medilink Members.
IMed were so delighted with their exhibitor experience with Medilink that they went on to also exhibit as part of the Med-Tech Innovation Expo in June 2022, in the Medilink Midlands Pavillion Zone. Speaking after the events, IMed’s Business Development Director Al Mills, said:
“Medilink has always been a great help to IMed and, just like the Medilink Innovation Day, the Med-Tech Innovation Expo has been another fantastic example of this. The new contacts that we made at these events and the resulting collaborations that followed have been brilliant and we can specifically track new business acquired and strategic partner relationships forged, back to these events. Of course, we also bumped into many of our current clients while attending, so it was wonderful to reinforce those relationships in person too.”
