Archimedes Statement on cancellation on our Leadership Workshop due to COVID-19

Many people have reached out to us regarding the status of our upcoming Archimedes 2020 Leadership Workshop in light of COVID-19. Based on our interest in everyone's well being, the fact that we have already had a number of speakers drop out, and after thoughtful consideration, our team has decided to cancel the 2020 Leadership Workshop. This is disappointing, but the right thing to do. 

Once the current situation has passed, our team will look into other options to bring you value, education and continued thoughtful conversations amongst members. We appreciate your patience as we work through options and new ideas.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes any of our members, but the safety and well being of our friends, colleagues and staff is our number one concern.

-The Archimedes Team

 

 

Archimedes Leadership Workshop

The Leadership Workshop on Medical Device Security is a 2-day exclusive event for Archimedes members and guests. The workshop is a combination of short presentations, group discussions and multiple opportunities to roll up your sleeves and get to work to find solutions. Our workshop provides everyone a safe place to teach, learn and discuss the issues around the "how" to advance the medical device security conversation.

This year, we are changing locations to work in conjunction with the University of Minnesota to bring you more insight, more topics and more discussion avenues. Our event will be the same format as always with great conversation amongst all the members and friends of Archimedes, with the option to stay and learn more at the UofM's DMD conference at a discounted rate.

This is a member and by-invite-only event.
