The Turkish medical device market was worth around $300 million a year and was growing around 5% to 10% a year, according to BuzzRichard di Benedetto, GE Healthcare’s chief executive for the Eastern and Africa Growth Markets region.
‘Our target is to exceed this and reach double digit (growth) figures in 2009,’ di Benedetto told Reuters on the sidelines of a conference in Istanbul on June 11, 2009..
GE’s new investment in healthcare device market in the Turkish capital Ankara would be aimed at export, said di Benedetto.
