About IDEASforEARS
IDEASforEARS is a yearly contest powered by MED-EL. The first competition took place in 2017 and since then we have received more than 1000 entries from more than 40 countries worldwide. Every year we welcome families from all over the world and show them around our MED-EL world. The IDEASforEARS event has always been a blast for everyone involved: the winners, their families, and the MED-EL team.
