Call for Nominations: 2021 Future Healthcare 100 – Innovative Vitality Ranking for Medical Device Companies

In recent years, multiple digital PCR instruments have been approved in China, and their clinical value has gained widespread recognition. The domestic cardiovascular consumables industry has achieved import substitution in the areas of cardiovascular interventional devices, occluders, and vascular stents. Furthermore, with the continuous advancement of technologies such as intelligent control, functional rehabilitation and assistive robots have gradually become one of the key technical approaches in clinical rehabilitation.

We are witnessing profound changes in China’s medical device industry, with rapid growth in domestic innovation. At the recent 84th China Medical Equipment Fair (CMEF), we could clearly sense the strengthening capabilities of Chinese-made medical devices and the overall breakthroughs achieved across the medical device supply chain.

To this end, we aim to use industrial research as a foundation to identify high-growth innovative medical device companies, while focusing on innovation development, technological transformation, and policy evolution in the medical device sector, throughIn Vitro Diagnostics (Digital PCR), High-Value Consumables (Cardiovascular Intervention), Rehabilitation Equipment (Rehabilitation Robotics)Three Basic Dimension Rankings andList of Cutting-Edge Medical Device TechnologiesSelected2021 Innovative Vitality Enterprise in Medical Devices, with the aim of discovering the power of role models.

Furthermore, the identification and selection of regionally innovation-driven enterprises will be a key focus of the future Top 100 Healthcare Companies series. This year’s Medical Device Innovation Vitality Ranking features an entirely new framework.Addition of the 2021 Medical Device Innovation Chunshang Award, select outstanding innovative enterprises and entrepreneurs from the 400+ medical device companies in Gaochun, Nanjing.
