Posted on 05.11.2025

Health drives our lives, from our personal well-being to the health of our planet and economy. On the road to UN Climate Change Conference COP30 in Belém (Brazil), taking place from 10-21 November 2025, we shine a critical spotlight on harnessing medical technology innovation for healthcare decarbonisation.

In this episode of MedTech ON AIR, we are joined by Sigrid Linher, MedTech Europe’s Director for Sustainability and Environment, to discuss the recent MedTech Europe study report commissioned to Boston Consulting Group on “Decarbonising Healthcare: How a Competitive MedTech Industry Can Contribute”.

The episode looks into what inspired MedTech Europe to launch this milestone project, highlighting the key findings from the study. More importantly, it explains why collaboration turns out to be the game-changer for building more sustainable and resilient healthcare systems.

Listen in as we discuss where MedTech Europe heads from here and why staying the course is essential to fulfilling MedTech Europe’s core mission to make innovative medical technology available to more people, while helping healthcare systems move towards a more sustainable path.
