Medtech Champions Made in Germany
summary
German medtech firms describe concrete moves: a Munich lab goes paperless, grows from 29 to 370 staff and deploys AI since 2017 to read blood and bone marrow, aiming to package algorithms as FDA‑approvable cloud tools; diagnostics group claims 80% of German leukemia diagnostics and Brainlab systems sit in 6,700 hospitals worldwide while scaling a 2,500‑person global team. They warn of GDPR limits, a projected 30% hospital workforce retirement in a decade, and argue automation plus curated clinical data are urgent.
