OCTANe will host the Fourth Annual California Medical Device and Investor Forum in Orange County on November 9 – 10. This exciting event will draw an array of industry entrepreneurs, corporate leaders and R&D executives, as well as university scientists, researchers, and venture capitalists. 

More than ever, companies and individuals must remain at the leading edge of innovation in the medical device industry to maintain a competitive advantage in the US and around the world. This is the Forum to connect with industry leaders; understand the latest advancements and trends; meet those to fund or license technology; and hear about critical developments in legal issues, regulatory, design and global opportunities for medical device companies.
