All medical device manufacturers who want their
documentation, labeling or quality processes to remain compliant need to
understand the language and translation requirements and implications of the
new EU MDR. The overwhelming majority of medical device manufacturers will not
be compliant by the May 26, 2020 enforcement deadline. In this webcast, you'll
hear from leading medical device regulatory experts who will provide insights
about how the current language requirements will change with the upcoming
enforcement date. They will outline essential information and considerations
for device manufacturers across the EU and explain everything you need to do to
remain compliant. The upcoming EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) is the most
sweeping change to the EU medical device landscape in two decades; make sure
your organization is prepared.
