Interested in Exhibiting?
The world’s largest exhibition for medical manufacturing expands again in 2008
to keep pace with the ever-increasing demands of the U.S. medical device manufacturing market.
Led by the dynamic growth sectors of cardiovascular, orthopedic, and surgical instruments, the $112 billion medical OEM industry has
consistently posted double-digit annual revenue increases at profit margins that are the envy of every other manufacturing sector. The
growth of this high-technology industry is slated to accelerate as baby boomers, representing one-third of the U.S. population, continue to age.
This fast-growth domestic manufacturing sector dominates the world market.
U.S. medical manufacturers currently produce 50% of all medical products consumed worldwide. Unlike other manufacturing sectors, the medical device sector remains unaffected by global outsourcing. Heavy R&D investment, constant innovation, and regulatory and liability issues keep medical manufacturing a leading U.S. enterprise.
