Medical Technologies Sector Review

 

Definition and scale of sector

  • Polymer/metal components,
  • Electronics/electromechanical sub assemblies,
  • Medical instrumentation,
  • Pharmaceutical production, wholesaling

Why the sector was chosen in the West Midlands

  • High rate of growth but from a low case.
  • Full role played by the medical market place on regional industry is understated given the role played by industries that supply multiple markets e.g. polymers.
  • Higher Education based investments demonstrate a potential for spin off activity. Opportunities for diversification. Major training region in Medical Schools and CE for the NHS.

  Pakistan Light engineering sector - March 2007

The state of the engineering industry describes the status of industrialization of a country since it portrays the capability to add value to the primary products and of indigenous production of plants and machinery. The developed countries have assigned high priority to the engineering industry in their own country. The range of light engineering goods covers electrical goods, transport equipment, domestic appliances, telecommunication equipment etc. There are about 2,500 registered units and a much larger number in the unorganized sector, with fixed assets of over Rs 100 billion.

Surgical Instruments Industry - April 2006 

The surgical instruments manufacturing cluster is located in the city of Sialkot. Sialkot has long been known for the expertise of its people in making metal related products. The blacksmiths of the region produced swords and daggers for the Mughal Emperors. The historical background shows that surgical instruments manufacturing actually started in this region at the turn of the century.

The American Mission hospital of Sialkot generated some demand of surgical instruments by getting its scalpels and other instruments repaired from the local artisan community of the blacksmiths, these craftsmen successfully replicated some of the instruments which were used by the hospital.
