New Zealand's medical technology industry is experiencing rapid growth. In 2022, the Technology Investment Network (TIN) reported that 17 MedTech companies ranked among the country's top 200 technology firms. A mix of established and emerging innovators is addressing challenging issues, from innovative surgical techniques to AI-driven micro-implantable devices. This transformation is fueled by substantial support from both the government and private sector. BioSpectrum delves into the details of New Zealand's thriving MedTech ecosystem.
