"The Covid-19 pandemic has exposed the weaknesses of our, political and economic systems. I looked forward more than ever to this year’s WOMI annual conference, and enjoyed participating in the debate and discussions over the much needed innovations by firms and hospitals, as well as government policy responses, to address the crisis. WOMI allows me to meet each year an international network of excellent researchers who discuss their early stage work on the dynamics of medical innovation."

"WOMI is a wonderful opportunity to meet with leading international scholars studying medical innovation. The WOMI tradition where all papers have a carefully chosen discussant, and are seen by all participants, ensures a very high quality of debate. WOMI has become one of the research highlight of my year, and especially in this year of lockdowns, the hosting of WOMI by Maynooth University and University 91̽»¨ is a particularly valuable opportunity to keep up with this important, fast moving field."
