How Ronovo Surgical is targeting China’s MIS surgical market with modular surgical robotic system

In this episode we’ll speak with two leaders of Ronovo Surgical, a Shanghai-based surgical robotics company that’s looking to challenge Intuitive and all comers to the massive surgical market in China. CEO John Ma and CTO Ying Mao describe the benefits they see in Ronovo Surgical’s unique modular system design. The pair bring experience from Intuitive, Auris, and other medical device companies. Why does Ronovo see its Carina system as a more attractive alternative to legacy MIS systems? And how does it intend to tackle the China market and beyond? Chris Newmarker, executive editor of life sciences, delivers his Newmarker’s Newsmakers after Host Tom Salemi bemoans the uncertain fate of his family’s Kia Rondo. Newsmakers include Silicon Valley Bank, Abbott, CVRx, AdvaMed, Johnson & Johnson and Medtronic.
