What is OMTEC

OMTEC, the Orthopaedic Manufacturing & Technology Exposition and Conference, is a crucial gathering for professionals in the orthopedic industry. It serves as a central hub for networking, allowing attendees to connect with industry leaders, suppliers, and peers. OMTEC also provides valuable learning opportunities, showcasing the latest advancements in orthopedic technology and best practices through educational sessions and presentations.

The event attracts a diverse audience, from OEMs and executives to engineers, buyers, supply chain managers, analysts, investors, academics, and surgeons. OMTEC offers a range of activities, such as the Tech Center, which focuses on technology-themed education covering topics like high-performance polymers, additive manufacturing, and smart implants. The Think Tank provides an interactive space for collaborative problem-solving. Exhibitor presentations offer in-booth showcases of expertise and new technologies. Finally, numerous networking events provide ample opportunities to forge connections and expand professional networks.
