NRW Network Evening at MEDICA 2023 in the Spirit of the NRW-USA Year: A Perfect Match!
This also includes the participation of companies and institutions from the USA, as the United States leads in medical research and development, with nearly 500 exhibitors and even more corporate visitors. Many of the world’s most renowned medical research institutions and universities are located in the USA. The promotion of innovations and investments in new technologies play a central role in the American healthcare system. Therefore, it was only natural that the NRW Pavilion invited visitors to the NRW Network Evening on the evening of November 13th in Hall 3, with a focus on the NRW-USA Year. Trade fair visitors were warmly invited to conclude their day at the fair with representatives from politics, business, and science.
This year’s NRW-USA Network Evening was opened by State Secretary Silke Krebs, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Innovation, Digitalization, and Energy of North Rhine-Westphalia, together with the US Consul General for North Rhine-Westphalia, Pauline Kao. Both speakers emphasized the crucial role of the healthcare sector in addressing global health issues and promoting global collaboration to improve public health. This includes the exchange of scientific expertise, resources, and technologies to combat diseases and develop new therapies. All participants agreed after the USA-NRW Network Evening: Transatlantic partnership will be crucial to address these challenges.
