EHFAM SATELLITE WORKSHOP 2026
3rd Novemeber 2026
09:30 to 18:00
Focused rooms.
Concerted effort.
Four streams, one kind of outcome
1.
Education & Training
Where do AM skills actually come from, and who teaches them? Scanning, data preparation, design for AM, process qualification, across clinic, industry, service providers and the vocational route.
WHO SHOULD BE AT THIS TABLE
Training providers and academies, scanning and design software, service bureaux, vocational and university institutions, orthopaedic technicians, hospital AM leads.
2.
Medical Innovation
Why do hospital and industry pilots stall between the pitch and the protocol? The intent exists on both sides; the contracting, data and IP path does not.
WHO SHOULD BE AT THIS TABLE
Printer and materials OEMs, service bureaux, hospital innovation and procurement leads, clinical engineers, legal and IP counsel.
3.
Reimbursement in Health Systems
What evidence would actually move a European payer on patient-specific devices? Today each hospital argues alone, indication by indication, and mostly loses.
WHO SHOULD BE AT THIS TABLE
Implant and device manufacturers, health-economics teams, HTA and reimbursement bodies, hospital finance, Printer and materials OEMs, regulatory consultancies.
4.
Defence & Medical
Where do medical AM and defence requirements meet? Forward and field care, supply-chain resilience, qualification in austere conditions, and the duties dual-use technology carries.
WHO SHOULD BE AT THIS TABLE
Defence medical services, military and civilian trauma clinicians, deployable manufacturing providers, export-control and compliance officers.
Every stream leaves with the same thing: two to three concrete projects or activities, each with named partners, a named lead, and a first milestone agreed on the day. What those projects are is decided in the room, not before it.
Who is in the room
Industry is capped at 12 seats.
Ten partners, twelve delegates. The Forum Partner seats three, one in each open stream; every Stream Partner seats one. A second delegate only if a seat goes unsold.
Roughly three industry to seven clinicians.
That ratio is the point. It is what makes the day feel like a working group with clear outcomes and deliverables.
Payers are in the room, not quoted in it.
Reimbursement and HTA representatives attend independently of any partner.
