Designing Medical Devices with the Future in Mind (mddionline.com) In this article Gavin Braithwaite, CEO of Cambridge Polymer Group, states that designers must take a next-generation mindset when developing devices. This includes 1) early consideration for material choices and future regulatory challenges, 2) avoid short-sighted decisions that could lead to costly redesigns or regulatory setbacks and 3 taking a holistic approach to device development. #medicaldevice #medtech #healthtech #biotech #lifescience

This article from MPO is a good reminder of how important due diligence is in any industry for a company that manufactures products for consumer use. Having a solid RIM system is one step in achieving this for medtech companies. #RIM #RIMSYS https://hubs.li/Q02nwCyz0

One of my favorite parts of the job is DFM (design for manufacturing) calls with customers that truly see us as partners. Being an engineer at heart, it means a lot when I'm given the opportunity to work with customers on perfecting their designs to be more manufacturable. #VantedgeMedical #Vantedge #MedTech #PrecisionMachining

“We’re living in the age of continuous disruption as and as organizations. We need to realize and prepare for that. And as a result, digital transformation. It’s not a nice to have. It is an imperative for our industry.” -Daniel Matlis As the pace of technological change shows no signs of slowing, the importance of #digitaltransformation will only grow. Companies that embrace this shift will be better positioned to navigate disruptions, meet customer needs, and drive sustainable growth.

The healthcare sector is quickly going through a digital transformation. Many Medical Technology companies have been employing telesales to sell medical devices or pharmaceuticals since the 1990s, which saw a drop in market share due to digitalization and increasingly tech-savvy competition. Buyers in the MedTech B2B space increasingly expect an easy, online experience on any device, mirroring their journey when shopping for personal products. By leaving the traditional single sales channel behind, MedTech businesses can communicate directly with the consumers, generate sales, increase efficiency and save time.
