Australian Biomedical Technology: Going Global was launched at the going global AusBiotech conference in November 2004.
This book showcases the successive waves of Australian biomedical technologies that have now gone global. It explores the challenges they have encountered and describes the strategies and tactics they have used to compete successfully in this exciting industry.
It contains case studies on many Australian biomedical companies, original research on the industry, expert advice on critical aspects of commercialising medical technology and information on resources available to help Australian biomedical companies and their local and international partners. It provides insight into the special issues faced by Australian biomedical technology companies in an increasingly competitive global market and through candid interviews with leading biomedical entrepreneurs, insight and advice on how to meet these global challenges head on - and succeed.
WHY IS THIS PUBLICATION DIFFERENT?
Australian Biomedical Technology: Going Global clearly differentiates from the industry “briefs”, overviews, industry capability documents and company directories currently available. It also works much harder than the usual glossy ‘coffee-table’ designed books. This publication is a tool that enables entrepreneurs, collaborators and investors who are interested in the Australian biomedical sector, to better understand how and where to focus their efforts.
Considerable time has been spent by the publishers in appraising the availability and impact of existing resources that seek to describe, support and promote biomedical innovation within Australia. The editor (Dr Abby Bloom) and publisher have also designed this volume to build on, and improve on our previous publication, Biomedical, Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Innovation: Australia's Opportunities (2000). This new and updated publication incorporates lessons learned by Australian biomedical researchers, inventors, companies and Government in recent years. We believe this invaluable resource will differentiate itself from all other publications that profile the Australian biomedical industry, and contribute directly to Australian organisations in ‘going global’.
