Innovators' Forum

Call For Presentations

In our continuing effort to promote the development and advancement of the latest technology, the ISET program committee is proud to announce the establishment of the Innovators’ Forum, through which companies and individuals may introduce their latest devices. This forum, which will consist of a series of short lectures to be delivered during a special Monday evening session, is designed to allow exposure of these innovations at all stages of development, from prototype to early human studies. Participants are advised that information will be presented in a public forum. Attendees are not bound by non disclosure.
