Clinicians

Engaging Medical Technology Innovation
If you are a clinician with a MedTech idea, Medtech-iQ Aotearoa can help with collaboration, learning, and growing your idea, and your know how, in all things MedTech.
Collaborate

There are a number of networks and forums for you to participate in, to understand the MedTech sector in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

‍

Come and have a chat with our team to find out how you can get involved, no matter whether you have a MedTech idea or want to contribute to those in development.
