Together with companies in the MedTech Twente cluster, we are accelerating medical technological innovations. A precondition for these successful innovations is that MedTech companies can access sufficient and qualified colleagues. How do we ensure that this talent need is met? Strengthening talent development and retention is essential for our region, from starters to experienced professionals.
The talent issue is part of the MedTech Twente 2030 project and interfaces with the Beethoven education project. As a first step, Saxion University of Applied Sciences has conducted research into recruiting and retaining talent. As a follow-up, we are organizing a project design session on Monday, September 23, from 13:00 to 15:00 hrs. We will discuss the main research results and discuss potential follow-up projects.

Organisation
MedTech Twente is the innovation cluster where medical technology is accelerated. Here, businesses and health care institutions work closely together with researchers from the knowledge institutes to invent innovations for the health care of the future. Innovations are being developed, validated and implemented in close collaboration with parties, facilitated and accelerated by supporting organizations such as Novel-T, Oost NL, TechMed Centre | Universiteit Twente, Kennispark Twente, World Trade Center Twente, Hogeschool Saxion and Health Valley Netherlands. It’s also not surprising that successful MedTech companies such as Demcon, Medspray, Micronit, Lipocoat and IamFluidics were founded and grown in Twente.
