CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio, April 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ORTHOWORLD®, Inc., leading producer of strategic intelligence for the orthopaedic industry, announced its education curriculum for OMTEC 2014, the 10th Annual Orthopaedic Manufacturing & Technology Exposition and Conference. Slated for June 11-12 in Chicago, Illinois, OMTEC will corral nearly 1,000 industry executives from more than 200 unique companies and 16 countries.

"Proficiency in design for manufacturability, FDA expectations, supplier compliance and globalization solutions are consistently high-ranking areas for instruction and will be covered."
