Italy's population was 61.78 million in 2015, and is increasing due to a positive balance between the birth and death rates, as well as through immigration. The country's policymakers are currently faced with the challenge of an increasing unemployment rate due to a lack of clear monetary policies.

The medical devices market was estimated at approximately $13.2 billion in 2015, and is expected to reach $16.2 billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 4.2%.
