SOMERSET, NEW JERSEY — Over 2,000 hearing care professionals from all over the United States are expected to attend the AAA 2023 + HearTech Expo on April 19-22. The conference aims to provide new knowledge and solutions to help improve the quality of life for patients with hearing loss. Oticon plans to offer hands-on experiences and in-depth introductions to its latest technology and business support as a Gold Sponsor for the HearTech Expo Hall.
As a part of Oticon’s participation in the conference, they will conduct educational sessions, demonstrations, and panel discussions, led by Oticon audiologists and subject matter experts. The company is committed to supporting hearing care practitioners with the latest technology and business services to help them thrive in the competitive hearing healthcare industry.

Through professional knowledge-sharing events, like AAA 2023 + HearTech, we aim to connect with practitioners, introducing them to the life-changing technology and the business services they need to thrive in a fiercely competitive hearing healthcare arena.”

One of the key products that Oticon will feature at the event is the new Oticon Real™, which is the next step in Oticon BrainHearing™ technology. The product is designed to provide patients with a full open sound scene with fewer disruptions to help them stay focused, especially during conversations. The product uses a Deep Neural Network that learns the way patients experience sound in the real world.
Oticon will also showcase several of its other innovative products such as Oticon Own™, Oticon Zircon, and Oticon Play PX, which are among the first in their categories to use Deep Neural Networks.
The Oticon exhibit (#618) will offer visitors the opportunity to meet with the Oticon Government Services team to learn how Oticon meets the unique needs of audiologists serving the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, and other federal agencies. The exhibit will also provide an opportunity for hearing care professionals to explore Oticon’s practice-support tools and services, which can help differentiate their practices, elevate their standard of care, and improve their profit and loss statement.
Audiology students are encouraged to attend the Oticon exhibit to learn about the company’s ongoing programs that help students develop their skills and build professional know-how.
