Events & Webinars
mpx.day is a new, premium one-day event by Pharca GmbH and CBR Sustainability Partners, bringing together leading experts from across the MedTech packaging landscape. It addresses one of the key challenges in the industry today: The event focuses on what defines excellence in Medical Device Packaging: navigating regulatory complexity (MDR, EUDR, PPWR), enabling innovation, ensuring validated processes, and advancing sustainable solutions.
As one of Europe’s leading conferences on biocompatibility and material safety, the event brings together industry experts, regulators, and researchers to address key challenges and advancements in the field. The conference focuses on regulatory developments, including the ISO 10993 series, as well as topics such as extractables and leachables, chemical characterisation, and biological evaluation under the EU MDR. It provides a valuable platform for knowledge exchange and discussion on ensuring the safety and compliance of medical devices.
The Sustainability osapiens Summit brings together over 2,000 professionals from industry, sustainability and compliance to address the growing complexity of ESG, regulation and supply chain management. This year’s focus lies on regulatory readiness (e.g. CSRD, EUDR, CSDDD), supply chain transparency and AI-driven automation. Key topics include carbon footprint management (CCF/PCF, CBAM), product compliance and digital product passports, traceability, as well as risk and resilience in global value chains.
The MedtecLIVE 2026 is a key meeting point for the European medical technology industry. The event brings together manufacturers, suppliers and experts across the entire value chain to showcase innovative technologies, components and manufacturing solutions. With a strong focus on topics such as digitalisation, automation, regulatory developments and circular economy, MedtecLIVE offers valuable insights into current trends and practical solutions, while providing extensive opportunities for networking and professional exchange.
The India Sustainable Aviation Fuel Conclave 2025 marks a pivotal moment in accelerating India’s green aviation transition. Organized by the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Association, this dynamic platform will convene leaders and innovators from government, industry, technology, finance, and agriculture to shape the future of sustainable flight. As India prepares to implement SAF blending mandates and expand its presence in global sustainable fuel markets, the Conclave offers a timely and strategic opportunity to explore advanced solutions, catalyze impactful partnerships, and unlock rural-to-global value chains in sustainable aviation. Whether you're driving policy, pioneering technology, or empowering grassroots innovation—this is where India’s sustainable aviation journey takes flight.
Navigating CBAM for Indian Exporters is a virtual industry webinar scheduled for 25 May 2026, organized by Ploxi and co-organized by SEPC and MEAI. The webinar aims to help Indian exporters understand the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and prepare for upcoming compliance requirements. It will cover CBAM regulations and timelines, emissions reporting, compliance processes, decarbonization strategies, and sector-specific impacts on industries such as steel, aluminium, chemicals, and manufacturing. The session is designed for exporters, sustainability professionals, compliance teams, and businesses supplying to EU markets.
The ICAO ESAF/WACAF & EASA SAF Workshop highlighted the accelerating momentum around Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) across the African aviation sector. Bringing together regulators, civil aviation authorities, industry stakeholders, financiers, technical experts, and project developers, the event created an important platform to move the conversation from ambition to implementation. With more than 80 on-site participants in Kigali, Rwanda and over 300 online participants from across the continent, the strong engagement underlined both the strategic relevance of SAF for Africa and the growing focus on creating commercially viable and scalable projects.

05th-06th March 2025 — Rome, Italy
Sustainability ambitions in MedTech are increasingly linked to the use of alternative and circular materials. However, their application raises critical questions around material safety, regulatory compliance and long-term risk.
At CBR, we are particularly interested in how these developments impact biocompatibility and toxicological assessment. As sustainability moves beyond design and sourcing, it is becoming a key challenge for safety evaluation and risk management.
This event provides a relevant platform to explore which questions, risks and regulatory considerations are emerging around recycled materials in medical devices – and how biocompatibility expertise can enable safe and compliant circular solutions.
Our project manager Andreas Egloff will be on site and takes an active part as speaker, discussing the challenges at the intercept on sustainability and biocompatibility in MedTech.
