September 19, 2017 By Chris Newmarker

Big-100-MDWhen it comes to the largest medical device companies, it’s a changing cast of players – as demonstrated once again in Medical Design & Outsourcing’s latest Big 100 list.

Some companies are usual suspects, but there are also surprises – especially thanks to the continued frenzy of mergers and acquisitions taking place in the space.

Read on to find out important information about the big kids on the medical device industry block.
