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.

We pulled financial regulatory filings and reached out major companies to create a list of the 100 largest medical device companies in the world, ranked by annual revenue for their medical device operations. Now we’re going to count down the top 20, starting with Nos. 20–11 today.

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.
