Our Client Company is highly regarded in the Orthopaedic/Spinal industries for developing new innovative implants and instruments.  Over the past 3 years, research and development in the Orthopaedic industry has been curtailed due to economic pressures and the recent US Department of Justice investigations into surgeon/company fraud and abuse allegations.  As a result, our Client Company created a successful business model to capture the increased demand for developing innovative products in partnership with surgeons and manufacturing companies.
