[Webinar Series on Medical Device Safety Standards from the Basics 2025] Session 2: Electromagnetic Interference/EMC Testing of Medical Electrical Equipment (IEC 60601-1-2) March 25, 2025 | Free | Online Technical standards for medical devices are complex and varied, including the IEC 60601-1 series and individual standards from the IEC 60601-2 series. In recent years, revisions to EMC standards have been made, and the transition period to the JIS standard JIS T 0601-1-2:2023 is approaching in mid-February 2026. In this webinar, as part of the introductory series on medical device safety standards for 2025, we will provide an overview of IEC 60601-1-2, explain electromagnetic interference testing, and discuss changes from the 4th edition to the 4.1 edition. Additionally, we will introduce some testing methods for basic standards that were requested in last year's survey. For more details and to register, please follow the link below.

In conversations with engineers in the manufacturing industry, I have increasingly received the following inquiries: - Confusion in interpreting experimental results - Taking time to organize hypotheses regarding the causes of troubles - Uncertainty about how to evaluate the impact of changes in raw materials or processes - Anxiety about the judgment of results from external testing organizations Considering the themes being discussed internally, I thought, "Could there be an opportunity to provide support as a third-party engineer for brainstorming?" Therefore, we have decided to establish a trial "Technical Consultation Opportunity." 【Overview of Technical Consultation】 - Target: Engineers and research and development personnel in the manufacturing industry, etc. - Content: Organizing experimental plans, interpreting results, organizing trouble hypotheses, etc. - Format: Online (approximately 60 minutes) - Cost: Free for the first consultation - Recruitment: Limited to 5 companies *Please note that we will take sufficient care to respect the confidentiality of each company's information and will not disclose anything externally. We hope you can consult with us with confidence. This will be more of a space for open exchange of opinions between researchers and engineers rather than a sales proposal. If you have any themes you are currently considering, please feel free to reach out. If you are interested, please contact us with "Request for Technical Consultation," and we will provide you with further details.

Thank you very much for visiting our booth this time. Thanks to you, we had the opportunity to introduce our products and technologies to many customers, making it a very meaningful time. If you have any questions regarding the exhibition content or if you would like to discuss specific considerations or estimates, please feel free to contact us. We will be happy to provide proposals tailored to your needs.

[Speaker] Inclusive Design Designer Yoko Nakao [Key Lecture Content] Products are not selling, differentiation is difficult, and regulations are changing. As product development and facility management reach a significant turning point, inclusive design, which involves engaging people who have previously been excluded from the development process to collaboratively think of solutions, is gaining attention as a method for creating new value. Additionally, practicing inclusive design is expected to enhance not only customer engagement but also employee engagement. In this seminar, based on 20 years of experience leading universal design and inclusive design with diverse characteristics both inside and outside a comprehensive electronics manufacturer, I will specifically explain how to practice inclusive design to create new value. [Lecture Items] 1. Inclusive Design as a New Growth Engine 2. Increasing the Resolution of Diversity 3. Inclusive Design Process 4. Side Effects - Ripple Effects on Talent Development and Recruitment 5. Conclusion 6. Q&A / Business Card Exchange
