A passion for healthy growth.

Medical technology and products

Germany has a long tradition of actively promoting progress in medicine and patient care. Close to the needs of patients, it has repeatedly succeeded in anticipating future developments and responding with innovation to the accelerated pulse of the times. This progress is due solely to the extraordinary entrepreneurial adaptability that characterises this industry, which is strongly characterised by small- and medium-sized enterprises.

Topics we know inside out: smart technologies, telemedicine, energy supply, e-health applications, local sourcing, labour costs, miniaturisation, skills shortage, Medical Device Regulation (MDR), Industry 4.0.

“The well-being of patients is the compass leading the actors in this industry. Finding people with the right mindset is only possible when it’s based on shared values. And yes, I fully share these values – it’s simply who I am.”

— Dr. Marc Stapp

Between AI and empathy:
an industry on the move.

Demographic change poses particular challenges for the healthcare industry. Innovative medical technology solutions and products can contribute in important ways to meeting the increased demand for high-quality medical care in ageing societies.

Immediate challenges, such as the supply chain and national healthcare systems, go hand in hand with the European Medical Device Directive (MDD), which requires all products to be re-approved. Opportunities lie in increased digitalisation: smart medical devices and e-health applications. At the managerial level, we need people who can act with foresight in a market with restrictive framework conditions, while always keeping the well-being of patients in mind.
