Biotech Month has arrived 

 

A few Maryland-based medtech companies are gearing up for the AdvaMed MedTech conference in Anaheim, California from Oct. 9-11. This delegation features firms in healthcare software, wearables, surgical robots and disease detection tech. It includes Backpack Healthcare, a RealLIST Startups honoree with a recent rebrand. AGED Diagnostics, which previously attended Startup Grind with other Maryland tech companies in April, will also be part of this conference. 

 

Read more about the companies representing Maryland at AdvaMed MedTech.

 

At Technical.ly, we're diving into biotech this month. We'll be exploring local job opportunities, emerging technologies and essential skills. We're also investigating what makes a strong and recession-proof life science hub.

 

If the distinction's helpful: Medtech involves tech-driven device creation, while biotech focuses on biological processes behind product development. We're particularly interested in companies working on cell or gene therapy products. Have any leads? Reply to this email or reach out to us at [email protected].
