The NANS meeting, which is being held at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas from December 4th-7th, 2008, will showcase products from Bal Seal Engineering, Inc., a California-based company with a 20-year history of supplying worldwide medical device and electronics OEMs with custom-engineered connectors and seals. Bal Seal will open its exhibit at 7:00 a.m. on the 5th, alongside major medical manufacturers such as ANS, Boston Scientific and Medtronic.
According to Bal Seal Marketing Director Bill Nissim, the company is attending the NANS meeting - and other similar events - in an effort to identify and engage “innovation partners.” By collaborating with these partners at the beginning of the product development cycle, the company aims to streamline the advancement and introduction of new medical technology.
“In the medical industry, there’s an increasing demand for innovation throughout the supply chain,” says Nissim. “Important advances aren’t just being driven by the manufacturer anymore. They’re a cooperative effort involving component suppliers with the resources and experience to actually make the OEM’s product better.”
Nissim points to his company’s Bal Conn™ product as an example of a solution born of just such an “innovation partnership.”
Bal Seal’s efforts to aid in the advancement of technology are closely aligned with the “New Frontiers” theme of the 2008 NANS meeting, during which attendees will learn about the use of neuromodulation therapies to combat headaches, obesity and the effects of stroke.
