With what may be the largest research and development pipeline in the world, the United States is responsible for some of the most cutting-edge devices available in the medical sector.
Industrial Info is tracking more than $5.5 billion worth of underway and planned medical device capital projects, including more than $1.6 billion worth that are under construction. While North Carolina represents the state with the highest future potential investment in this sector, Illinois leads in the value of projects actually turning dirt. While not attracting the largest investments, Puerto Rico leads in the number of both planned and underway projects in the U.S. medical devices sector.
