Welcome to the Medical Technology Association of NZ

Technology Investment Network (TIN), in association with the Consortium for Medical Device Technologies (CMDT), has today released New Zealand’s first ever HealthTech Insights Report, offering a deep dive into the country’s largest tech industry sub-sector, Healthcare Technology. The inaugural report provides a closer look into NZ’s healthcare technology sector based on data from TIN’s 2019 survey results, including size and significance, key export markets, investment challenges and opportunities, along with a comprehensive directory of 163 early stage HealthTech companies that currently exist in New Zealand.

The Wellbeing Budget: Rebuilding Together package invests more than $3 billion in operating funding per year to ensure that government services continue to support New Zealanders through this extraordinary time. It provides $5.6 billion for the health sector, so it can respond to the pandemic while maintaining the sustainable delivery of existing services. It also invests $1.6 billion across the forecast period in both government and non-government social services, which will support New Zealanders’ education, employment and housing outcomes.

MTANZ is committed to contributing and collaborating with our public health service to get through the impact of COVID-19.

The global medical technology industry is fully committed to responding to the needs of citizens across the world, those of healthcare workers and governments, in tackling the ongoing outbreak of the Coronavirus COVID 19.

The Health Minister David Clark and Faye Sumner from the Medical Technology Association of New Zealand, discuss the shake-up.
