The critical importance of—and intense competition within—the pharmaceutical industry has been front-page news since the Covid-19 pandemic began. From R&D to supply chain and operations to every facet of commercialization, pharma and biotech companies have to execute flawlessly across all dimensions if they hope to win.

The booming MedTech sector is transforming healthcare and life sciences. Innovative devices and products, integrated platforms, and digitally powered selling and service models are rapidly altering the competitive landscape, making it imperative that MedTech companies rethink their go-to-market strategies.
