India Orthopedic Devices Market: Unlocking Growth Secrets, Trends and Develop...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, “India Orthopedic Devices Market -Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030”, the India Orthopedic Devices Market stood at USD 1,280.54 Million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 7.84% in the forecast period, 2026-2030F. The India Orthopedic Devices Market is being driven by several factors. The most prominent ones include an increase in the elderly population, who are more prone to orthopedic conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the rise in sports injuries and road accidents are also contributing to the demand for orthopedic devices. Advances in technology and the introduction of innovative implants and prosthetics have further propelled the market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

59. @capenterprise
Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme-SEIS is a tax break launched in April
2012 for UK tax payers to encourage them to buy shares in start-up
companies registered in the UK
The Facts:
• SEIS investors can input £100,000 in a single tax year rising to a maximum £150,000
over two or more tax years in to a single company
• Investors cannot control the company receiving their capital
• Investors pick up 50% tax relief in the tax year the investment is made, regardless of
their marginal rate.
• In the 2013-14 tax year, tax payers can roll 50% of a chargeable gain in the tax year
in to a SEIS with a full capital gains tax exemption (another 14%)
• The business must be a start-up company -registered in the UK within 2 years of
claim.
• The company must not employ more than 25 workers.
• The company must have assets of less than £200,000.
• The company has to trade in an approved sector – generally not in finance or
investment, for example, a property company raise capital as a SEIS.
SEIS is…… “a game changer”?

Ten slides. Ten is the optimal number of slides in a PowerPoint
presentation because a normal human being cannot comprehend
more than ten concepts in a meeting—and business angels are very
normal. If you must use more than ten slides to explain your
business, you probably don’t have a business. The ten topics that an
investors cares about are:
1. Summary and call to action/ what do you want?
2. Problem
3. Your solution

5. Underlying magic/technology

questions – can digital technology be used to:
• capture and distribute small-scale
theatre productions economically and
effectively to reach new audiences?
• retain the unique intimacy, engaging
quality and ‘liveness’ of performances?
• facilitate a viable and sustainable
business model around this?

108. Business model chart of accounts
• Profit and loss AND balance sheet structure reflects that this is
venture requiring risk capital and planned to make a profit
• Exploitation of film across multiple platforms & windows – and
ancillary rights (eg soundtrack) and spin-off products (merchandise)
• What the original producer(s) of the performance take as a fee can
significantly effect the profit of the film
• The costs of ‘producing’ – management, executives, commercial
negotiations, business affairs (legal) – need to be factored in
• There will usually be multiple investors – and multiple other
rightsholders with a share of profits – rights/profit share require
administration

The Business Growth Service covers MAS, GA, IPA from the IPO and DM from DC to provide tailored business support to s & m firms with ambition and potential to grow, making growth support even easier for businesses to access.
UKTI (UK Trade and Investment) and UKEF (UK Export Finance) work with the Business Growth Service to provide Export support to customers where it is needed, and we are closely linked with InnovateUK and the British Business Bank.
