       While US & EU capital is flowing into Asian investments in record numbers, Asian Capital is flowing to the US like never before.  Positioning your company for the right Asian investors, in the right way given the geographic and cultural challenges is tricky. One can waste time and capital chasing an Asian “Butterfly” Investor.

      Renard Charity of Fletcher Spaght and John Evans of Tractus-Asia have helped entities in the US, Asia and around the world raise capital, assess markets and execute go-to-market strategies.  They will present on Feb 23rd on:

        Positioning your company’s fund raising story for success

      • Bringing the data & analysis that will set you apart on initial investor meeting
      • Finding and qualifying Asian investors for you to engage
      • Succeeding in the Asian Investment process or relationship

      We look forward to seeing you on the morning of Feb. 23 to learn more about the benefits and challenges of seeking investment for your medtech company in Asia.

      The prominent emerging markets – Brazil, China, India and Turkey offer significant opportunities for medtech companies willing to invest the time and resources. With growing middle classes and governments dedicated to improving the quality of health care, these particular markets could be fertile territory for sales growth in the coming years.

       The emerging markets do not come without challenges and potential pitfalls. This seminar will examine issues medtech companies need to investigate prior to marketing and selling in these countries, including product development sensitivities; complying with American and British corruption laws and product introduction. In addition, area experts will brief registrants on the latest medtech marketing news from these countries.
