The North American IVD market is expected to grow from $31.1 billion in 2017 to $36.9 billion in 2022, according to a study by BBC Research. The San Francisco Bay Area is home to well-established IVD device leaders responsible for spearheading industry advancements including Bio-Rad, Roche and Thermo Fisher and many other promising startups breaking into the market. To foster growth and knowledge sharing, BIOMEDevice San Jose will bring leading experts to Silicon Valley for exclusive panels and sessions at this key time for the IVD industry for those looking to expand domestically and abroad.
“Testing is required for most clinical decisions and IVD vendors to innovate at a fast pace, to help improve survival rates, reduce hospital stays, and lower costs,” said Bruce Carlson, Publisher, Kalorama Information. “Each year only increases the awareness that healthcare providers, payors, and investors have of the importance of in vitro diagnostics, and the important contribution they make in fighting cancer, treating anti-microbial resistance, and even opioid abuse. It’s a 65 billion-dollar industry, but that belies the true value—IVD is influencing the 18 trillion dollar world healthcare market.”
BIOMEDevice San Jose will host a dedicated-area for presentations, Center Stage, which will feature conference-level presentations on the most notable trends across the IVD industry from leading organizations such as Aromyx, CDxPrecision Health and Kalorama Information.
“At CDx Precision Health, we are seeing first-hand the positive impact that IVD services and products are having on improving the quality of people’s lives,” said Alan K. Hauser, Strategic Business Development SVP, CDx Precision Health. “Collaboration with top minds in such a pivotal moment for the industry will lead to stronger processes and developments for the medical device community as a whole.”
