The Pan-Governmental Medical Device Research and Development Program (hereinafter referred to as the “Program,” Director: Beop-min Kim) announced on the 13th that it will participate in the International Hospital & Health Tech Fair (KHF 2023), to be held at COEX in Seoul from the 14th to the 16th of this month, where it will operate a public-outreach exhibition booth and host a seminar to promote medical device R&D achievements.
Having selected ten flagship projects in May after comprehensively considering their potential for future performance creation, the Program will showcase these ten outstanding R&D achievements at its promotional pavilion located at Booth I13 in Hall D of COEX during KHF 2023.
The exhibition pavilion will introduce the following Top 10 Flagship Projects:
Development of a Human-Centered Intelligent Chairside K-Dental Solution (Vatech)
Development of a Brain-Dedicated PET System and Convergent Molecular Imaging Platform for Overcoming Degenerative Brain Diseases (BriteTonix Imaging)
Development and Commercialization of a Peripheral Microvascular Ultrasound–Photoacoustic Fusion Imaging Device (POSTECH Industry–Academia Cooperation Foundation · Optico)
Development of the World’s First Wearable Automatic Insulin Delivery System for Insulin-Dependent Diabetic Patients (EOFlow)
Development of an Innovative AI-Based Ultra-Fast MRI Imaging Software (AIRS Medical)
Development of a Radiation Sensitivity Diagnostic Kit for Head and Neck Cancer Patients (Gachon University Industry–Academia Cooperation Foundation · MBD)
Commercialization of a Counter-Pulsation Controlled Portable Cardiopulmonary Circulatory Assist Device (Samsung Medical Center · CGBIO · Insung Medical)
Development of an Integrated Drive System Embedded in Fingers and Palm for Myoelectric Prosthetic Hands (Mand.ro)
Development and Commercialization of a High-Performance Smart Flexible Electronic Endoscopy System for the Gastrointestinal Tract Based on AI and Motorization Technologies (MedInTech)
Validation of In-Vitro Diagnostic Reagents for Viral Load HBV, HCV, and HIV-1 to Obtain European IVD Medical Device Certification (Bioneer)
In addition, the Program, in collaboration with the Korean Hospital Association, will co-host a seminar titled “The Future of Medical Device R&D and the Program” on September 15 from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in Room 308, 3rd Floor, COEX.
The seminar is designed to bring together diverse perspectives and opinions from industry, academia, research institutions, and hospitals to discuss the establishment of a sustainable medical device R&D ecosystem. The program will consist of Topic Session I, Topic Session II, followed by a panel discussion.
Topic Session I will cover:
The Future of Medical Device R&D and the Program from a Clinical Perspective (Hak-jong Lee, Director, Biomedical Research Institute, Bundang Seoul National University Hospital)
The Future of Medical Device R&D and the Program from the Perspective of Universities and Academic Societies (Dong-wook Kim, Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Jeonbuk National University)
Topic Session II will address:
The Future of Medical Device R&D and the Program from an Industrial Perspective (Nam-kwon Cho, Executive Director, Korea Medical Devices Cooperative)
The Future of Medical Device R&D and the Program from a Government Perspective (Ji-hoon Park, Program Director, Korea Evaluation Institute of Industrial Technology)
Program Director Beop-min Kim stated,

“We hope that this exhibition booth and seminar will serve as an opportunity to inform the public about the excellence of domestically developed medical devices. We will continue to make every effort to create outstanding medical device R&D outcomes and contribute to the development of Korea’s medical device industry.”
He added,
“As the follow-up programs currently being prepared by the Program are intended to advance the domestic medical device industry, we ask for the cooperation of related organizations and the continued interest of the public.”
