PALO ALTO, CA – Frost & Sullivan’s quarterly analyst briefing presentation on the North American medical EMS market will be held Sept. 25 at 11 a.m. EST.
Highlights of the briefing include a discussion of current and future industry trends, market drivers and challenges, says the firm.
EMS providers’ increased concentration in the medical device industry propelled market growth in 2006. Medical OEMs’ willingness to outsource and produce viable business relationships will boost their presence and permit the incorporation of additional service offerings from EMS companies, Frost says.
Primary drivers such as an aging population and technology innovation in medical devices will enable EMS providers to offer optimal solutions and penetrate key end-user segments.
“As more EMS providers penetrate the medical device industry, profit margins are likely to increase, and medical OEMs are likely to have more of a selection of distinguished suppliers,” says research analyst Julian Harris.
To participate, email Sara Villarruel at sara.villarruel@frost.com with the following information: full name, company name, title, telephone number, e-mail, address, city, state and country.

MUNICH – Dr. Franz Josef Radermacher, head of the Research Institute for Application-Oriented Knowledge Processing, will keynote this year’s Productronica trade show.
Dr. Radermacher, who is also professor of informatics at Ulm University, will speak on the challenges of globalization, information society and sustainable development.
Radermacher, who holds Ph.D.s in mathematics and economics, will analyze current developments in population growth, social tensions in the global society, cultural conflicts and the aggravation of the worldwide ecological situation. He will illustrate the special role of electronics, computers and networks as the nervous system of humanity. He will provide a few future scenarios: the collapse of the biosphere, the "Brazilianization" of society, and the ideal balance. Finally, he will offer a possible initial solution toward implementing an eco-social global economy with the Global Marshall Plan.
He is one of the guiding forces behind the Global Marshall Plan Initiative aimed at harmonizing business interests with the environment, society and culture by creating an ecologically and socially compatible global economy.
