Irvine is home to over 15,000 businesses, and life sciences and medical device companies constitute one of the fastest-growing sectors. With a global focus on the Medtech industry, the need to build an infrastructure that can support the explosive forecasted growth is more crucial than ever. A well-educated, job-ready workforce, world-renowned R&D facilities and community initiatives all conspire to make Irvine a magnet for Medtech success. So how is Irvine executing on their 50-year plan coming out of the pandemic, to ensure our medical device community is not only a hub of talent and innovation for California, but for the world? In this episode of DeviceAlliance’s Medtech Radio, we speak with the President and CEO at Greater Irvine Chamber of Commerce, Destination Irvine and Irvine Economic Development, Bryan Starr. Join us as we discuss the efforts the Irvine Chamber is making to support the medical device community, their initiatives to attract foreign medical device companies to relocate to Irvine, as how we as a community can engage in local efforts to ensure the thriving success of medical device industry.
