Networking at events with Lynda Wight on the Medical Device made Easy Podcast with Monir El Azzouzi

Networking at events can seem really difficult. Saying “Hi” to persons without knowing them is a bit awkward. What is the objective of this approach?

If you are going to events to find new customers, to discover new technologies or to learn about the industry change, it is critical that you invest some time to research and prepare for it so you can maximize your return on Investment.

This is what Lynda Wight, Executive Director at TOPRA will help you understand on this episode. As an example, we will use the TOPRA Symposium 2019 to describe the situation.

This year, the TOPRA Symposium will be held in Dublin, Ireland – September 30^th to October 2^nd. If you have a moment during the breaks I’d be delighted to meet new colleagues and familiar faces at Booth 27 (RApport Global Strategic Services) where I will be discussing the transitioning of the MDR/IVDR amongst other topics!
