James Roberts, CEO of mOm Incubator, a designer and manufacturer of incubators, will discuss best practices for managing clinical testing of new products and incorporating feedback from clinicians.

The Incubator has now been fully developed, is regulated having received CE marking, and has saved lives both in the NHS and overseas.
