Learning & Knowledge
is an on-going pursuit.
Beacon conducts and participates in events that are pertinent to the
needs of our customers and the medical device industry. On July 19th,
2007, Beacon held its first technical conference in Providence, RI.
Presentations focused on materials, package design, thermoforming,
sterilization, regulatory iss ues and packaging system validation.
Attendee feedback was very positive and plans for L&K II are already
under way.
Beacon is committed to staying connected to the needs of the industry
and continually striving to better serve the needs of our customers. New
ideas were generated from L&K Providence that will help us build L&K II.
We’d love to hear your thoughts. If you’d like to help us customize our
next L&K event to address your needs, or would like to sign up to learn more
