Meet the Experts: In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation

What is the event about?

Navigating the path to bring an In Vitro Diagnostic product to market starts by having the right information to comprehend the regulatory journey. Meet the Experts: IVDR will focus on understanding the requirements of the In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) and ISO 13485, maintaining certification and managing post-market obligations.  Whether you are an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) manufacturer, regulatory affairs professional or IVD startup, this event is your opportunity to gain insights and ask the questions that matter most. At the event, you can expect to:

  • Broaden your IVDR knowledge and understanding 
  • Learn what a successful IVDR submission looks like
  • Understand the pathway to CE marking
  • Gain knowledge of post-certification requirements
  • Connect directly with BSI’s IVDR specialists

What You’ll Gain:

  • The latest updates on the IVDR
  • Real-world case study and lessons learned from IVDR submissions
  • Answers to your questions in a live Ask the Experts Q&A session
  • Deep-dive workshops to help you navigate the IVDR 

This is not a lecture. It is a practical, participant-led day where you hear from the people who assess submissions against the requirements of the IVDR; and where you get to ask the questions that matter most to you. 

 

Why Attend?

  • Stay current on the regulatory landscape: get the latest updates on IVDR transition timelines, Annex VII requirements, Class D devices, breakthrough devices, and what IVR 2.0 means in practice. 
  • Understand the full regulatory picture:  hear how IVDR, ISO 13485 and MDSAP interact and where the requirements overlap, so you can plan your compliance approach with confidence. 
  • Learn from real-world experience: gain insight into what a robust submission looks like, where manufacturers commonly encounter difficulties, and what BSI's assessment process involves. 
  • Prepare for post-certification: understand what maintaining certification requires, how to manage changes effectively, and how to work with your post-market surveillance data. 
  • Ask the experts directly: put your specific questions to BSI's Notified Body specialists in a live panel Q&A.
