Happy weekend, faithful readers!
Topping the headlines for MPO readers this week was the beginning of a collaboration deal between Johnson & Johnson MedTech company Ethicon and CMR Surgical to expand the choice across surgical robotics and advanced laparoscopic instruments, focusing initially on private hospitals in France, Germany, and Brazil. Not far behind was Boston Scientific's announcement that it began proceedings to purchase Apollo Endosurgery, a company focused on devices used in endoluminal surgery (ELS) to close gastrointestinal (GI) defects, manage GI complications, and help patients suffering from obesity to achieve weight loss, for $615 million.
The bronze medalist for this week was Vance Street Capital's news that it was acquiring medical contract manufacturer Innovize and folding it into portfolio company Excel Scientific.
