And the number 1 thing we overheard at AdvaMed 2015 was:
MedTech companies are incredibly challenged reaching health care providers about the value of their products using traditional sales and marketing methods. They need a way to speak intelligently to multiple decision makers and funnel what they hear back to the home office in the most expedient manner possible.
AdvaMed 2015 was TikaMobile’s first experience with the conference. Everything we overheard and discussed with major industry players confirmed that what we are doing at TikaMobile is exactly what the industry needs. We look forward to participating with AdvaMed in the future!
