Description

The medtech industry has enjoyed robust M&A activity, strong financings, and a rise in R&D investments, but other numbers point to troubling developments that threaten the future health and growth of the industry, according to a new report from EY. We spoke to Ellen Licking, EY Life Sciences lead analyst, about the report, concerns about the venture capital industry’s move away from the sector, and questions about who will fund early-stage innovation that will be necessary for the future growth of the industry.
