The Rise of Global Medical Technology

Mar 08, 2019

Over the past few years, the MedTech industry has witnessed significant growth and development. An aging population, the rising burden of chronic diseases and increased trust in medical devices by clinicians and consumers have resulted in greater alliances between pharmaceutical companies and the MedTech sector.

Although North America and Europe currently hold 68% of the global MedTech market share, MedTech companies are now shifting their focus to emerging regions for R&D of new medical devices.

The MedTech industry is facing increasing challenges, such as an ever-changing regulatory environment, reimbursement cuts, the high cost of advanced medical technologies and safety pressures. The UK MedTech market, for example, is likely to be negatively impacted by the outcomes of Brexit. Consequently, innovative developments in MedTech have become crucial for sustaining health, as technology plays a key role in every aspect of our daily lives.
