“Growth will come from many different factors: market share capture, accelerating the market whether that’s through market growth or pricing increases, as well as new products and technology introductions. But the ability to drive high growth rates in low growth markets is becoming more and more difficult. That’s where you look at consolidation and many times you’ll see acquisitions from the larger players to be able to grow inorganically.” David Uffer – VP of MedTech and Sr. Partner of Alira Health

What innovative businesses are leading in emerging markets? David discusses how to evaluate an emerging market and how to drive high growth rates in low growth markets.
