AI and Big Data-Based Legal and Regulatory Education and 1:1 Consulting for Experts and Companies to Be Held on the 20th
Nam-pyo Hong, the Mayor of Changwon Special City, Gyeongnam, stated, "We plan to concentrate the manufacturing capabilities of AI and big data-based medical bio devices in Changwon."
Changwon Special City explained that the global medical bio device industry has been continuously growing and is expected to maintain steady growth. By combining the strengths of the region as a precision machinery industrial city with medical bio technology, the city is focusing on fostering the advanced medical bio device manufacturing industry based on AI and big data. To this end, they are directly supporting innovative companies with R&D, product advancement, GMP facilities, as well as providing concentrated support for full-cycle licensing, IRB (Institutional Review Board), and clinical trials.
Since the medical bio industry, which is related to life, involves professional and complex procedures such as clinical trials and licensing from securing advanced technology to product verification and production, continuous education on medical device industry laws and regulations as well as one-on-one customized consulting for companies is necessary. Accordingly, on the 20th, a medical device law and regulation education and one-on-one consulting session will be held at the Changwon Convention Center (6th floor banquet hall).
More than 50 participants from local medical bio companies and others are expected to attend this event. The speakers include Jonghee Lee, Team Leader of Usability Evaluation at Seoul National University Hospital for clinical and usability fields; Youngcheol Seo, Principal Researcher at Korea Testing Laboratory for testing and inspection; Jongseol Baek, CEO of Best ENC for GMP certification; Kyunghee Lee, Team Leader of Medical Device Business at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute for installation of shared medical bio equipment; and Yangho Song, Team Leader at Korea Smart Healthcare Association for full-cycle licensing.
