Financial rebound in med-tech sector continues in 2018 with public markets outperforming

July 12, 2018
By Karen Carey

Financings tracked by BioWorld MedTech indicate that 2018 is holding steady with the prior year. Public markets are outperforming other health care sectors, and series A investing is at a decade high.
