MUMBAI, September 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
The healthcare industry in India has grown tremendously in the recent years. This in turn has helped increase life quality and expectancy, and counter diseases that were previously considered life threatening or terminal. A great portion of the healthcare infrastructure is medical devices and equipment that extend and improve life by diagnosing, preventing, or treating diseases. However, these medical facilities remain largely unavailable to the majority of those in need.

"The Indian Healthcare eco-system has grown exponentially over the last 50 years making the country a medical destination of choice. One of the biggest contributors to this turnaround has been a booming medical devices sector, spurred by the acceptance of world-class technology. Medtec India 2013 offers the perfect platform to showcase innovative solutions and an opportunity for dialogue between relevant stakeholders," said Mr. Joji George, Managing Director, UBM India

The Indian medical technology industry is expected to grow from USD 2.75 billion in 2008 to USD 14 billion in 2020. Valued at $3 billion in 2011, the industry is expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 16 per cent during the 2010-2015 period, far better than the 2-3 per cent growth expected in this sector in the US and Europe**. This makes India as one of the top three emerging markets for investments in the medical devices sector. Though there is growth, it is also accompanied by current upheaval in medical device regulations and the enforcement of more stringent guidelines, and it is imperative that all stakeholders in the field; industry, regulators and patients are on a common ground with respect to the regulatory environment. Medtec India 2013, is the perfect platform to engage in educational discussions and is the right environment to meet the right people, face to face with the objective to introduce each of the stakeholders with the people who matter most to their business. The event features a range of networking and social engagement opportunities like facilitated business networking, i-3 centre, speed networking and speed geeking, which will attract high profile, influential and decision makers from the industry and open doors to the future of medical technology in India.
