# Challenges Slowing Medical Innovation

## Training, sales enablement and adoption remain challenge

Medical device companies face high costs, complex logistics, and adoption barriers that hinder training, sales enablement, and global growth

# Inefficient Training Programs

Costs and logistics restrict effectiveness

- In-person training demands significant time, money, and resources
- High costs for travel, venues, and equipment limit accessibility
- Scheduling challenges reduce attendance and impact
- Many physicians can’t justify time away from their practice

# Barriers to Adoption

Access and training gaps delay adoption of new devices

- Slow adoption without proper exposure or training
- Physicians hesitate to use tools they haven’t tested
- Lack of hands-on experience delays new technology adoption
- Advancements take longer to impact patient care

# Sales Struggles in Driving Adoption

Translating features into value is a challenge

- Selling devices means showcasing their real-world clinical value
- Sales teams struggle without firsthand experience of devices in action
- Lack of context makes it harder to connect with surgeons
- Disconnected conversations lead to less effective sales efforts

# Limited Access to Procedures

Critical insights are missing for better design

- R&D teams struggle to access live procedures and physician feedback
- Lack of real-world insights hinders effective innovation
- Unobserved device performance risks misaligned solutions
- Delayed feedback slows the innovation cycle

# Limits to Global Reach

Delivering consistent training at scale is hard

- Scaling global training is costly and complex
- Remote and underserved regions lack training access
- High travel and equipment costs limit global reach
- Traditional methods fail to ensure consistent quality
