| 8:15 AM - 9:00 AM | KEYNOTE: The Economics of Small Medical Implants Smart Medical Implants, devices that include Integrated Circuits (ICs), is a $4.8 Billion market in 2024 and expected to grow at 18% through 2033. This growth is built around the technological advancements of the semiconductor industry which have enabled the size, power, and performance optimization necessary to make these devices viable. Semiconductor technology advancements and economics are driven by high-volume products. 1.8 billion phones, 250 million computers, 200 million TVs, and 80 million cars are produced per year, all of which have many ICs. Most medical implants never reach the kind of production volumes to take advantage of the economies of scale that the semiconductor industry expects, but they often need access to advanced technologies to meet their productization goals. This address discusses the business economics of developing an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) for a Smart Medical Implant, with an emphasis on strategies to navigate the low-volume economic challenges. |
