Global Medtech Industry Adapts to Seismic Shifts in Healthcare
Mark your calendar to hear EY’s insights from Pulse of the industry, an annual medical technology report, which discusses the noteworthy financial performance, deal-making and financial trends that have emerged in the last year, and their future implications.
Despite a buoyant mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market and a solid performance in venture capital financing, other financial metrics suggest the global medtech industry is struggling to grow as significant changes in technology and reimbursement combine with the greater empowerment of consumers to reshape healthcare.
