On July 16th, 2018, ADVAMED, Medical Devices & Diagnostics Sector Committee of EuroCham and VIMEDAS have successfully organized an awareness and training workshop on compliance for local Partners in Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh. This workshop is part of annual training, followed the Hanoi workshop in 2017.
This workshop is marked as a great opportunity for local Partners to get first-hand information from experienced foreign and Vietnam-based speakers on the topic of compliance, typical pitfalls and on how to establish compliance systems even in small to medium enterprises. The case study session was included for attendants to discuss and share their thoughts in an empirical case.
The workshop was full with around 100 participants and the training had a great impact on the audience, for them to fully realize how important compliance is for Healthcare community, especially Medical Devices Sector, and also to understand the practice of it.
Our Business Ethics Working Group will follow up specifically on this topic as well as on the implementation of codes of ethics and further communication and trainings in the coming weeks and months with the healthcare and medical devices community.
