Medical technology provides more accurate diagnoses, enhancing treatments, reducing disabilities, and delivering better medical care.
Canada has the ninth largest medical technology market – and with an aging population, it’s a market that’s projected to grow steadily over the next decade. At the center of this economic growth is the need for new talent skilled in the area of medical technologies.
