Research related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on business strategy, information technology, and supply chain agility on firm performance in the medical device industry in Indonesia. The analysis used is the Structural Equation Model (SEM) with the AMOS program. The study had 171 respondents. The findings in this study are that business strategy, information technology, and supply chain agility have a positive and significant influence on firm performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. The practical implication is that business strategies and information technology save companies and society by involving supply chain agility in securing the supply of medical devices in Indonesia. It is recommended that further research consider not only focusing on medical devices but also larger or different areas to elicit different responses. The practical implications provide direction for adopting business strategies, information technology, supply chain agility in improving firm performance.

The author assesses the results of the Bioengineering Design Forum – a collaboration between university researchers, clinicians and industry in Ireland. The aim of the Forum is to initiate, develop and bring to a successful conclusion R&D collaborations that lead to new or improved medical devices. By laying down certain operating procedures for the Forum, an effective ‘meeting ground’ has been developed which serves the objectives of both university engineering departments and the medical device industry in a unique way. The purpose of this paper is to relate our experiences of the Forum; they may be useful to others who would like to attempt similar initiatives in other fields. The author also describes the results that may be expected from this kind of university–industry collaboration in practice.
