Webinar #1: Indo-Dutch innovation during crisis - Biotech and Medtech

During this first webinar of the series, we focus on Biotechnology, which is one of the areas
that needs most attention right now. We talk about how two different countries that have
been collaborating to make healthcare more affordable and accessible are responding to
the pandemic through research and innovation. How the governments, research
organisations and businesses, especially entrepreneurs have been at the forefront of developing solution related to Covid 19 crisis.

We hear the take of thought leader organizations from India and the Netherlands on both
immediate as well as long term innovations that are required to overcome the ongoing
crisis. We cover innovations in areas such as diagnostic & testing equipments, low cost
respiratory devices as well as vaccines. We exchange stories of biotech entrepreneurs and
how they are accelerating their impact footprint. By doing so, we learn from each other and
provide an opportunity to form strategic Indo-Dutch ties!
