Slator’s 44-page 2020 Medtech Translation and Localization Report is the ultimate resource for language service providers (LSPs), buyers of translation services, and investment professionals looking to understand the complex landscape of translation and localization services for medical technology (medtech), a USD 0.8bn market in 2020.
The report provides an overview of the medtech industry, which encompasses medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) as well as emerging transformational technologies such as interconnected medical devices, software as a medical device (SaMD), telehealth, and others.
We examine the regulatory context surrounding the medtech industry — from established regulations in the US to a new regulatory framework in Europe, and the growing market for medtech in Asia Pacific (APAC).
We tackle the life cycle of a device — from design and development through to marketing, post-market surveillance, and after-care — and highlight key content types that emerge from activities carried out by medtech companies, such as product labels, instructions for use (IFUs), field safety notices, and marketing materials.
