Medilink EM Members came together today for the East Midlands Annual General Meeting (AGM), at Charnwood Campus in Loughborough. This allowed them to look back on the company’s performance for the past year and have their say on its future endeavours.

Medilink East Midlands is the life science industry organisation for the East Midlands. It connects life science businesses across its area and works in the interests of its membership, which comprises life science businesses, academics and clinicians, of a wide variety of sizes and disciplines.

Keith Widdowson, Chair of Medilink East Midlands, opened proceedings by updating Medilink members on the company’s performance for the last year. This year, the City of Mentor, Ohio, also sponsored the Medilink EM AGM, as a result of the burgeoning relationship between the two organisations.
