At Medtronic, we recognize we cannot fulfill our Mission alone. In order to “alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life,” we must support the many stakeholders in healthcare, including providers, medical societies, and patient groups. Part of our role is to provide financial assistance for independent medical conferences, charitable events, medical education and public education programs.

Please note: These donations are separate from those funded by the Medtronic Foundation and the External Research Program (ERP). For more information about the focus of these projects, visit the related links to the right.
