Growth Opportunities in
the
Orthopedic Device Market
June
26
2008
7:00 - 9:30 am
UCI University Club (Irvine)
According to a recent report
published by the Freedonia Group, "demand for orthopedic
devices will reach $19.1 billion in 2011, up 8.8 percent annually from
2006." Growth in this market segment will be spurred by a
spike in tissue and spinal implants and will see the fastest sales gains
as advances in fusion, fracture fixation and neurological stimulating
technologies improve the success rate and cost-effectiveness of related
surgical procedures. Speakers discussed strategies to partake in this growth opportunity.
