FIME is the #1 Medical Show, and the #1 Medical Trade Fair – and takes place from August 5-7, in my home town, at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Since 2010, I have had the privilege to be a speaker at FIME and had some of the largest groups of attendees to discuss compliance with the FDA, and how to resolve typical FDA and CBP issues.  
I’m thrilled to say I’m speaking again this year. My topic is “How to Effectively Resolve Typical U.S.Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Issues for Medical Devices”.

My seminar will take place on August 5, 2015, at 10:00 am (EST) in Room D232.
