In 2012, three companies were selected as manufacturers of the year. These firms embody the immediate needs and the future of medical device development. Each firm has developed technology that strives to mitigate the rising costs of healthcare, respond to healthcare reform, and improve clinical outcomes. What are their secrets to success? What are their challenges? We’ll explore these questions and more in a session with these pioneers of the digital medical device revolution.

From the prospective of a leading physician, scientist, and innovator, this talk examines rapidly emerging, game-changing, and convergent technology trends and how they are and will be leveraged to change the face of healthcare, the medical device industry, and the practice of medicine in the next decade.
