Everything you need to know about medical device creation

Medtech development is hard. Medical device creation can require manufacturing know-how in areas as wide-ranging as electrical components, high-performance polymers, molding and machining – and that doesn’t even include the required expertise in design, regulatory requirements and achieving reimbursement.

The good news is that the companies serving the medical device industry have become specialized experts. Through our annual Medical Device Handbook, we harness this expertise for the medical device industry. We request articles from medical device designers, outsourcers and consultants that avoid marketing pitches and instead provide useful information for the medical device development community.
