Idea in Health Care
Introduction
At medikana, we aim to foster transparency in the global medtech industry. Our mission is to enhance access to medical innovation by streamlining the commercialization of medical devices. We serve as navigational guides for manufacturers venturing into international markets, accelerating the delivery and adoption of transformative healthcare solutions.
Problem
Latin America is grappling with a significant medtech shortage, made worse by the fact that 85% of these essential devices are imported. U.S. manufacturers willing to address this need are confronted by a maze of fragmented regulations, convoluted paperwork, and inconsistent local laws. This complexity turns the commercialization process into a slow, expensive ordeal, often yielding low ROI. Such barriers actively discourage medtech manufacturers from global expansion, exacerbating an already critical lack of access to advanced medical technology in Latin American communities and negatively impacting healthcare outcomes across the region.
Opportunity
medikana is your one-stop-shop for global medical device sales, designed to de-risk the process and create long-term partnerships. Our platform streamlines each step, from matching manufacturers with distributors to automating regulatory tasks and managing orders and training. We make international sales fast and profitable for U.S. manufacturers, helping local sellers find the products they crave and boosting healthcare quality for all.
