This video offers an in-depth guide to global expansion strategies for medical device companies, focusing on how to integrate commercial growth ambitions with regulatory discipline to succeed in international markets. Drawing from Pure Global’s insights, it explains why expansion cannot be treated as a purely commercial exercise and why regulatory strategy must be built into every market access decision from day one.

Topics covered include:

  • Why global expansion demands integrated commercial and regulatory decision-making
  • How to conduct pre-market research that reduces financial and compliance risks
  • Building strong local partnerships to support sales, distribution, and representation
  • Establishing post-market vigilance systems that scale across borders
  • The critical importance of defining market access control

Global expansion presents powerful opportunities: new customer bases, diversified revenue streams, stronger brand recognition, and increased shareholder value. It also brings exposure to new cultures and market dynamics. But those rewards come with significant challenges, including language barriers, unfamiliar legal frameworks, and a complex patchwork of regulatory requirements that, if mismanaged, can derail growth plans and create unnecessary financial risk. This video dissects both sides of that equation, giving you a clear view of where the real leverage points lie.

You will learn how to structure your global strategy around two inseparable pillars: commercial planning and regulatory planning. On the commercial side, it covers the importance of market research, prioritization of target markets, mapping out distribution and sales channels, and selecting reliable local partners. On the regulatory side, it highlights how to identify country-specific requirements, evaluate product registration risks, select the right local representatives, and ensure your post-market vigilance processes are synchronized worldwide.

A central theme of the video is market access control: determining who owns the rights and responsibilities for distribution, product registration, and importation in each target market. These decisions directly impact revenue, speed to market, and long-term compliance. By understanding these dynamics and making deliberate choices early, companies can prevent costly disputes and delays.

Whether you are entering one new market or planning a multi-region rollout, this video equips medical device leaders with the perspective and practical steps needed to turn global expansion from a high-risk gamble into a disciplined growth engine. Watch to see how a combined commercial and regulatory strategy can open doors and protect your investment on the global stage.
