Foreword

Our recent strategy has served us well. It supported the leadership and dynamism across this strong export-led sector which has seen growth in R&D investment across many

Foreign Direct Investment and indigenous companies. The sector has grown considerably over the past four years, with 27,000 people employed across 400 companies. Ireland’s medtech sector is the highest employer in Europe, per capita, directly exporting to over 100 countries worldwide. You should all be very proud of the role that your business and this industry are playing to make Ireland the fastest growing economy in Europe.

But we still face challenges, now is the time to rethink our healthcare system and steer it back onto a sustainable path. The medtech sector recognises that the current business model is coming to an end. As an industry, innovation has always been at the heart of what we do. Innovation will be key for developing better patient outcomes and a sustainable healthcare system. The sector has a lot to offer to drive this important change.

The global medtech industry is expected to reach €475 billion in 2018, an annual growth of 5.5% over the next three years. Ireland should maximise opportunities with growing demands to become major contributors to global healthcare and the global economy. Our continued success will depend more than ever on our ability to adapt and meet the challenges ahead.

We have been preparing for the next phase of our strategic plan since mid-2012, when we conducted a mid-term review to collect as much input as possible from our members and stakeholders across the ecosystem.

Along with best quality market insight and support from a wide variety of sources, we have carved out the next phase towards an exciting future for IMDA and our members.We have a new vision and mission. A roadmap of where we need to be and how we can best get there. We are also keenly aware that one size does not fit all, and we are confident that our approach caters for the many and varied requirements of our members now and into the future. With four out of five medtech companies being SMEs or start-ups, we know that different companies have different needs. We promote the interests of the sector by collaborating on shared goals, co-ordinating on activities and ensuring that each member is well represented to achieve their potential.

We are reaching out to those who wish to be involved in the creation of a dynamic and exciting future for the medtech industry in Ireland. And through the provision of high-quality services to our member organisations, IMDA stands ready to help you as you navigate your way forward to make Ireland a global medtech hub.

To everyone who helped to get us to this point, thank you.

For over a decade the Irish Medical Devices Association, the Ibec group, has worked closely with industry and stakeholders to make Ireland the best place for medtech business. In order to achieve this, every four years a strategy is developed to identify new opportunities, and reflect on the progress we have made. But more importantly it’s a chance to set-out our ambition for the future.

IMDA Statement of Strategy 2016-202002

Industry outlookIreland’s medical technology industry has continued to grow over the past four years. At the same time the demand for and cost of healthcare is rising, which is challenging most health economies across the world. There is no doubt adoption of technology will help meet these challenges; however, new business models will be needed to drive new ideas.

The availability of improved outcome data from healthcare solutions will likely drive increased data demands to support pricing and reimbursement. As such, IMDA’s new mission statement reflects

the need to build awareness of the value of medtech. New economic models will be required that can evaluate the impact of new technology on the longer term outcome and total cost of a patient’s illness will need to be considered, as opposed to models that are based on cost alone. The medtech industry has a key role to play in addressing the challenges that the global healthcare systems face.

The recovery means there will be new manufacturing opportunities. Output in traditional manufacturing was up 6.3% in 2014. However, much more can be done to help the sector which still faces pressure from lower cost economies. This can be managed by staying at the forefront of advanced manufacturing and service excellence, investment in advanced and additive manufacturing technologies must be part of the plan ahead if we are to succeed.

How Ireland is innovating for future healthcare and economic growth 03

Foreign Direct Investment and indigenous companies are continuing to ‘move up the value chain’ and expand their mandate which will lead to new research and product development programmes. Realising the full potential of the cluster, we will deliver more research, development, design and marketing of innovative technologies. New devices developed from a range of converging technologies, in particular those which are focused on information technology in connected health and big data are now an established growing market. The medtech sector is known for its ability to innovate. Ireland’s strength in IT means we are uniquely placed to develop new products through collaboration. Connected health will define a new approach to promoting patient health, as well as drive economic success.

Nurturing entrepreneurship is bearing fruit with more investment in medtech start-ups. It is essential that entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial activity is well funded to ensure successful new device companies emerge from Ireland. A high level of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity has and will continue to restructure the industry globally. There is an opportunity for Irish subsidiaries and indigenous companies to identify M&A targets through business development activity in Ireland and Europe. This could drive further entrepreneurial activity within the country and help further build Ireland’s reputation for medtech.

Growing exports will not be without its challenges as trade barriers and local regulations may continue to impact export potentials, but the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) offers growth opportunities for the sector.

The global ethical compliance and regulatory landscape is also changing rapidly and IMDA will continue to work with stakeholders to provide best industry foresight. It’s vital that the industry plays its role in ensuring the right conditions for growth are in place to support better patient outcomes.

We are experiencing the age of the empowered patient, an age when users and patients will no longer be dictated to as they were in previous generations. In order to respond to this shift, medtech businesses need a new set of ingredients to design their strategies to truly resonate in the marketplace. Given the industry’s existing capacity to adapt, it is well placed to address these challenges.

But to unleash our true potential and seize emerging opportunities, recognising and rewarding a culture of innovation will play a vital role in stimulating the sector to develop new capabilities and meet the challenge of achieving cost-effective, sustainable healthcare systems. Innovation and innovative thinking have transformed the landscape for business in Ireland in the past, and will ensure that the medtech sector continues to thrive into the future.

Dr Sinead KeoghDirector, Irish Medical Devices Association, a business association in Ibec

We must embrace the skills

revolution, by adopting strategies to ensure

continuous upskilling and development of Ireland’s workforce so that they have the skills needed today for the medtech

businesses of tomorrow.

Ireland’s medtech sector is now recognised as one of the top five emerging global hubs.
