Automation Beyond Compliance:
Accelerating MedTech Innovation Responsibly
15th July at 3:00pm
Pace. Speed.
These seem to be common descriptions from our development teams when we discuss the changes within the MedTech space.
And under mounting pressure to meet complex regulatory demands, these teams need align their efforts whilst delivering faster, safer, and smarter products. Traditional, manual approaches to development and validation no longer scale with today’s increasingly software-centric and AI-enhanced medical devices. We also need to factor in that balance of velocity with quality, data privacy, and patient safety—making compliance not just a requirement, but a strategic imperative.
It's now rightly about adopting that growth mindset; overcoming these pressures by moving from reactive compliance to proactive, intelligent automation. Like retail and cloud-driven industries already embracing hyper-personalization and AI-enabled operations, MedTech must embrace this new frontier; automation isn't just about reducing manual work—it’s about embedding quality, safety, and compliance into the product lifecycle by design. Whether it’s AI-driven test automation, risk identification, or real-time traceability, automation should be seen as a continuous improvement engine that enables innovation, not inhibits it.
In this session, we’ll explore how automation and AI can help streamline development, enhance product quality, and meet evolving regulatory requirements across both hardware and software-based devices.
Drawing on successful approaches from industries like retail and cloud infrastructure, this showcase will identify best practices and offer a forward-looking view of MedTech development at scale led by a dedicated team of experts and thought leaders from Global Logic.
Key questions will include:
How do you embed safety and compliance directly into automated workflows?
Where do human oversight and judgment remain essential?
What are the fastest ROI areas in automation for MedTech teams?
Discussion points
How can automation help shift from reactive to predictive quality assurance
Where can automation create the biggest gains in the MedTech lifecycle—design, validation, documentation, or compliance
What shouldn’t be automated in safety-critical systems and how we prevent AI and automation from becoming ‘black boxes’
