 With China surpassing Japan to become the world's second-largest economy and the central government investing $193 billion to modernize China’s healthcare system, a tremendous market for the medical device & diagnostics industry is emerging.  Industry behemoths from US and Europe such as Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic, and others are stepping up their presence in China to capitalize on the $14 billion medical device market, which is expected to double by 2014. This conference offers a rare opportunity for a diverse cross-section of companies to share their successes and the challenges they faced navigating the Chinese market. Learn how they dealt with issues ranging from differing medical practices, engineering considerations, and Chinese regulatory hurdles to product distribution, reimbursement, branding, and IP protection.
