Swiss MedTech Event 2026

MedTech in Recalibration: Staying Ahead in Regulation, AI and the Deal Landscape

Sidley, ISS AG and Swiss Medtech invite you to join our annual Swiss MedTech afternoon, bringing together regulators, industry leaders, legal experts and scientific advisors for a focused exchange of insights and perspectives.

2026 marks a pivotal moment for MedTech. Key regulatory frameworks are in transition: MDR and IVDR revisions are advancing, the implementation timeline of the AI Act has been updated, and EU simplification initiatives are reshaping obligations across sustainability, digitalisation and reporting.

At the same time, manufacturers are also navigating growing geopolitical and economic uncertainty, including supply chains challenges and rising costs. In Switzerland, developments such as Swissmedic’s proposed fees and swissdamed add further complexity, while increasing M&A activity reflects  the shifting regulatory and market landscape.

The event provides a platform to discuss current developments, share practical insights and explore strategies to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving landscape.

• The European Regulatory Reset: Navigating MDR/ IVDR Revision and Omnibus
• AI Act: From Uncertainty to Implementation
• The EU Simplification Agenda in Practice
