Loved spending time with my global partners Ajay Nair and Tom Farr while they were on this side of the pond. Ajay, Tom and I had a chance to chat about the fundraising trends we are experiencing as we move positively in 2024. One of the opportunistic trends is private equity's interest in #MedTech companies in an earlier stage. As venture capital funds have had to double down on their own portfolio, PE investors are becoming more active in these innovative plays. As Ajay explains, PE has traditionally been more mature in the #APAC region, and this trend becoming more popular in the US will only strengthen our globalization in #healthcare. #medicaldevices #funding #privateequity #startups #healthtech #TMG
