COMPANIES THAT JOINED US IN 2026
Why this event matters
Medical device packaging is entering a new era – and mpx.day 2027 keeps you ahead.
Increasing regulatory expectations, combined with rising sustainability demands and supply chain pressures, require companies to rethink how packaging is designed, validated and managed across its lifecycle. At the same time, resilience, circularity and innovation are becoming critical success factors – shaping how materials are sourced, used and recovered across global value chains.
In 2026, experts from healthcare, industry, research and regulatory practice came together in Mannheim to share real solutions for these challenges. In 2027, we go one step further.
Through compact keynotes, practical insights and real-world perspectives, mpx.day 2027 provides a deep dive into:
