The Medical Technology Group is a coalition of patient organisations, res-earch bodies, medical device manufacturers and trade associations.
Its members – including The British Vascular Foundation and Heart Research UK – voted to appoint Weber Shandwick after a competitive pitch.
The account team will be led by the agency’s UK public affairs chairman Jon McLeod and its head of healthcare public affairs Tamora Langley.
McLeod said: ‘The work that lies ahead is both fascinating and timely.’
