There is an urgent need for entrepreneurship and innovation in this field.This study uses, for the first time, the patent landscaping as a tool to explore the potential entrepreneurial opportunities in medical devices. It further delves into the medical device market status in India, patentability and regulatory issues, government initiatives, etc.- giving a snapshot of the promising areas of medical devices for entrepreneurs to venture into.
