On Monday, September 23rd, M2D2 was pleased to host the first Mexican Medical Device Industry Mission to Massachusetts. Joining us were the Mexican Consulate General from Boston, Daniel Hernandez Joseph, as well as thirty-five guests representing ten Mexican companies, government and educational institutions. This contingent was welcomed to campus by Chancellor Meehan, Vice Chancellor Moloney, and M2D2 co-directors Dr. Stephen McCarthy, Dr. Steven Tello, and Dr. Nate Hafer.
They toured the M2D2 innovation hub and enjoyed a working lunch where client companies shared their personal experience running their start-up businesses here, and their collaboration with UMass Lowell. The visit concluded with a tour of the Saab Emerging Technologies & Innovation Center and a networking session attended by about 100 community, university, and medical device industry professionals.
