Given the challenges in raising capital for emerging medtech opportunities and getting regulatory approval, more and more U.S. companies are looking to develop and launch their products and start their companies in Europe; at the same time, the U.S. remains the largest medical device market in the world with the strongest infrastructure for small companies looking to build quickly. Further, most of the corporate exit decisions are taken in the U.S. offices of medtech strategics. So is the U.S. the best place to be? Or Europe? Or is it a question of building on the advantages that each region offers and getting the best of both? Factors that influence the decision include regulatory strategy, market size, etc. This session will explore the subject with executives from both geographies, each of whom has taken a different approach to that issue.
