International Hearing Instrument Developers Forum in Oldenburg
In June, the 11th International Hearing Instrument Developers Forum in Oldenburg hosted around 80 experts from industry, science, clinical practice, and management.
Plenary talks about future trends and perspectives for the development of hearing aids were followed by a parallel program with impulse presentations and intensive exchange focussing on aspects of hardware, algorithms and audiology. Concluding sessions provided an opportunity to bring together and discuss the topics of the day.
Every two years, the International Hearing Instrument Developers Forum brings together key players from research and development to promote exchange and knowledge transfer, thereby creating new synergies for better hearing care.“, says Prof. Birger Kollmeier, Co-Chair of the Forum and Spokesperson of the Cluster of Excellence Hearing4all.
