5 things that could shape surgical robotics in the next decade

Apr 9, 2024 | therobotreport.com | Tom Salemi

You’ll see a lot of surgical robotics talk at this year’s DeviceTalks Boston. Surgical robots are smaller, smarter, and being launched into space. 2024 is going to be a huge year — here’s why. I believe 2024 will be remembered as the year when the surgical robotics sector — not just one company — planted both feet on the ground, slowly rose up, and stood tall in the medical device industry. Why?

Oct 16, 2023 | massdevice.com | Tom Salemi

At DeviceTalks West this week, we’ll explore the design, economics and broader opportunities for surgical robotics. Companies large and small have sought to take on Intuitive in soft-tissue surgical robotics, but it has maintained its dominance. During its second-quarter earnings call in July, Johnson & Johnson reported progress with its Ottava next-gen robotic surgery system, saying there would be an update for investors before the end of the year.
Quantum Surgical’s Bertin Nahum on the evolution of surgical robotics

The evolution of the surgical robotics field has been fascinating to watch and, of course, to talk about with leaders in the space. To that end, I can’t wait to connect with Bertin Nahum of Quantum Surgical who will join us on Oct. 19 on our keynote panel, How Surgical Robotics Companies Are Following the Shifting Centers of Care. At first glance, Quantum’s Epione robot looks like a small step in this evolutionary scale.
