The 20 Largest Medical Device Companies In the World

September 19, 2017 By Chris Newmarker

Largest Medical Device CompaniesWhen it comes to the largest medical device companies, it’s a changing cast of players – as demonstrated once again in Medical Design & Outsourcing’s latest Big 100 list.

We pulled financial regulatory filings and reached out to major companies in some cases to create a list of the 100 largest medical device companies in the world, ranked by annual revenue for their medical device operations. Now we’re going to count down the top 20.

Some companies are usual suspects, but there are also surprises – especially thanks to the continued frenzy of mergers and acquisitions taking place in the space.

Read on to find out important information about the big kids on the medical device industry block.

And you can also pick up a free hard copy of the Big 100 issue at DeviceTalks Boston on Oct. 2!

Research by assistant editor Danielle Kirsh. Executive editor Brad Perriello, associate editor Fink Densford, associate editor Sarah Faulkner and senior editor Heather Thompson contributed to this report.

    Apologies. We had to fix a technical glitch with the Big 100 spreadsheet download. If you fill out the sign-up form now, you should get an email with a link to download the spreadsheet, instead of last year’s Big 100 edition.
