Episode 2 of the season – Medtech International Marketing and Sales Efforts During Covid-19 Season One – Covid-19 – how Medtech companies can respond in marketing, sales and operations. Today we are talking about international marketing in the Covid-19 era. There is a good chance you are either a manufacturer that exports product to international markets or a distributor that is representing a manufacturer. My experience is that small and medium sized US companies tend to treat their international markets as a low priority. Non-US manufacturers are much more sensitive to their international distribution networks. During this challenging period, it is very important to be communicating with your international channels! It is not hard! Nor expensive! To discuss this in more detail, we are fortunate to have Kris Morrill with us today. Kris is the co-founder of medeuronet, a medtech consultancy with an office in Strasbourg France that can help companies succeed anywhere along the medtech roadmap from innovation to commercialization.
