About this event
This discussion-based episode spotlights a real-world case study: how Smith+Nephew selected and implemented ROBAR from Innovatum as their new global labeling system. You’ll hear how the company transformed a complex, high-volume, and highly regulated labeling challenge into a streamlined success story through teamwork, strategy, and best practices.
We’ll explore the key factors Smith+Nephew considered, why ROBAR stood out as the right fit, and the partnerships that enabled success. Plus, we’ll look ahead at how robust data management, error-prevention tools, and system integration are shaping the future of medical device labeling.
If your organization faces challenges with complexity, compliance, or scalability, you won’t want to miss this inside look at what’s possible when technology and teamwork align.
