No CME provided for this pre‐conference session.
We have developed the program with an aim of achieving several objectives:
1. Identify and discuss the data that needs to be collected by commercialising companies to ensure it has utility for
future reimbursement applications.
2. Learn about the process by which innovations occur, become funded, receive reimbursement and reach the
marketplace.
3. Describe the process of establishing and protecting intellectual property.
4. Define the regulatory process by which the CE Mark and FDA approval are obtained in Europe and in the U.S.,
respectively, and ultimately earn full reimbursement.
5. Learn about what public scientific initiatives are available with which to partner.
6. Find out about current and future investment strategies and challenges in the device market ‐‐both in Europe and in
the U.S.
7. Discover emerging companies and the science behind their innovative therapies.
8. Network with the leaders in innovation, investment, basic science and clinical practice in the neuromodulation space.
