Sustainable Corporate Governance

Explore

Considering the evolving EU legislation on sustainable corporate governance and human rights due diligence, MedTech Europe helps its members understand and anticipate changes.

MedTech Europe plays a crucial role in supporting its member companies with compliance and preparedness for the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD). By providing resources and a space to discuss challenges and opportunities, MedTech Europe ensures that member companies are well-equipped to meet these regulatory requirements. Furthermore, MedTech Europe assists in navigating additional national regulations, fostering a cohesive approach to sustainability across the medical technology sector.

Key topics

Privacy and Data Protection

The medical technology industry is committed to the highest standards of data protection, ensuring the responsible handling of sensitive information while enabling innovation in healthcare.

Product Liability and class actions

A fair, balanced, and effective civil justice system in Europe must ensure, on the one hand, that consumers with legitimate grievances receive compensation, while, on the other hand, providing businesses with legal certainty and transparent, workable rules.

Competition law

MedTech Europe supports competition-friendly policies that enable the medical technology industry to meet Europe’s growing healthcare needs and expectations, ensuring a level playing field and fostering innovation

Anti-corruption and anti-bribery

Bribery undermines economic development, distorts markets and raises the cost of doing business. The fight against foreign bribery requires the concerted efforts of a unified front and MedTech Europe leads industry’s commitment via a collective industry action in the form of a binding code of ethical business practice that translates legal requirements into clear, sector-specific standards.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property (IP) rights are essential for fostering innovation and ensuring that cutting-edge medical technologies reach patients while maintaining a fair and competitive market.
