Patel MedTech Industry Trends, Insights and the Road Ahead: Business Evolution in the “Next” Normal The MedTech industry has relied on a tried and true playbook for many years – one that is focused on driving in person engagement for product knowledge, service and medical education. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused the MedTech industry to innovate and transform very quickly, for some in a matter of weeks and others a matter of months – all by leveraging data. This digital transformation was part of a longer term plan that was accelerated by the pandemic. As we continue on our journey in the “next” normal, MedTech organizations are focused on driving value that aligns with the continuum of care. In this session, you will hear how industry trends and insights are generating commercial innovation and business transformation that not only empowers sales and marketing teams, but also connects the entire MedTech organizations with Providers, Payors and Patients in a data enabled and connected ecosystem. |
