Orthopaedics: Surveying the Global
CompetitiveLandscape

The orthopaedics market is one of the leading medical device sectors with a track record of consistently providing good levels of return to developers and investors, and real benefits for healthcare professionals. However, the economic recession has hit health spending hard and companies have been required to fundamentally review their operations just to keep pace.

This new richly detailed report critically assesses the competitive orthopaedic landscape with analysis of 50 key companies. The company landscape is always changing: some have been bought by the big boys and aspiring developers, whilst others have just run out of money and gone to the wall. Slowly but surely the private equity groups - most of whom have been in relative hibernation for the past couple of years - are gradually returning to the fold and supporting financing rounds. Collectively these are exciting times for orthopaedics.

This report provides you with key data for each company...

• Location & Key Personnel: Contacts for management and business
• Company Overview: A brief review of the company’s development
• Key Milestones: Significant corporate, research and products events
• Agreements: Strategic alliances within the industry
• Competition: An insight into the competitive environment for each company
• Products/Technologies: A complete review of the available proprietary technologies
• Financial Review: Financial statements, where available, plus notable funding arrangements

The ability to readily assess the companies involved, research areas of interest, products being developed, strategic collaborations and performance/funding is key to understanding this market. In 300 information-packed pages, the expanded new edition of Orthopaedics: Surveying the global competitive landscape (published November 2010) evaluates companies large and small from multinationals to specialist development and technology organisations. All major orthopaedic, prosthetic and fixation devices are covered.
