#### What will I learn?

The United States FDA and European Union's MDR share many similarities when it comes to how they regulate and govern medical devices, but they also share a fair amount of differences. It is important that companies understand how to devlop regulatory pathways and quality systems that comply with both authorities if global distribution is of interest. PQE's EU and US experts will be discussing what it takes to bring a device to both of these markets. The talk will outline key considerations for comapnies who are deciding to enter one, or both markets as well as companies who are looking to expand from one to the other. The discussion will include topics such as; how to classify a device, what are the regulatory pathways and market application types, as well as the major differences between the two authorities.
