Mark Bezjak, President of the Americas, and Joe Urban, President of Knees for Zimmer Biomet, joined me in One60 Studios to discuss how Zimmer Biomet continues to drive forward and set the pace as a global medtech leader.
We discussed how Zimmer Biomet’s bold vision for maintaining its leadership in medtech embraces and is introducing first-in-category enabling technologies in pre-op, intra-op, and post-op care for their patients.
I love seeing this sector of the market push hard and take a bold approach to what healthcare should be.

🌟 What an incredible event we had yesterday on navigating "The Medical Device Road-to-Market"! 🌟
A huge thank you to our distinguished speakers from Lymphatica Medtech (Marco Pisano), Euresearch (Irina Sakharova Quitt), Swiss Medtech association (Daniel Delfosse), and F+R services (Mayella Favre) for sharing their invaluable insights! 👏
Here are some personal takeway from the event:
1. Financing Clinical Studies: It's essential to target a large addressable market (>500M USD/year) and gather support from clinical communities and strategic partners. Beyond venture capital, Horizon Europe funding can significantly aid in financing these studies.
2. Regulatory Challenges: The phrase "US innovates," "Asia manufactures," and "EU regulates" highlights the unique landscape. However, EU regulations introduce significant uncertainties regarding time and cost. EU regulators need to understand that patient safety is not just about product safety but encompasses product safety, availability, and innovation!
3. Achieving Reimbursement: Gaining CE certification is just the beginning. The next phase—securing reimbursement—requires navigating a complex process involving a different set of stakeholders.
So bringing a medical device to market is a long and challenging journey that demands extensive planning and the engagement of a diverse range of stakeholders at various stages. The event truly underscored that the success of innovation extends well beyond mere technological advancements.
Thank you to everyone who participated and made this event a success. Looking forward to more such enriching sessions in the future! #Medtech#Innovation#RoadtoMarket#MedicalDevices#VDtechInnovaud
