Especially now we can show what contribution the research and development of established groups as well as the innovations of young start-ups in medicine make to solving current challenges&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>The kick-off event of the second project year was subject to special conditions due to the current situation caused by Corona and was broadcast in a live stream for the first time thanks to the support of Montagsgesellschaft e.V. &#8220;Especially in turbulent times like these, it is important to us to continue to bring start-ups and industry together on current topics and to promote cooperation,&#8221; said Oliver Schwebel, Managing Director of the Frankfurt Economic Development Corporation. <\/p>\n<p>Moderated by Dr. Stefan S\u00f6hngen (Montagsgesellschaft e.V.), start-ups and industrial companies held lively discussions on current developments in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors. Prof. Dr. Jochen Maas, Managing Director Research and Development of the pharmaceutical group Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland GmbH and Otto Philipp Braun, Member of the Management Board of ALMO-Erzeugnisse Erwin Busch GmbH, one of the world&#8217;s leading manufacturers of disposable syringes, provided insights into the approaches and measures of the groups. Benedikt Sons, CEO of the med tech start-up Cansativa, specifically pointed out the regulatory challenges, but also the long-term opportunities in the industry for young companies. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Especially in times of crisis, innovative solutions are needed faster and more urgently than ever. Cooperations between industry and start-ups and the courage to invest promptly in new approaches are essential here,&#8221; added Christian W. Jakob, Head of Frankfurt Forward. <\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2oV7VELAW0I\">The recording of the event can be accessed here. <\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frankfurt Forward brought together on May 5th start-ups, industrial companies and other experts from the Frankfurt (start-up) ecosystem around the topics of medicine and technology &#8211; digitally, of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4367","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Radical change in the medical and pharmaceutical industry?
