You might recall Brian Sharp recently published a viewpoint on five pricing and value management challenges that were identified by over 500 medical device professionals by asking question: “What is the biggest pricing and value management challenge facing the medical device industry?” While this provided us with a look at pricing and value management opportunities and the general state of value capture, of course it raised additional questions.

Searching for Web 2.0 & Social Media Innovators
There's a lot of talk and research out there on the value of social media for marketing, branding, and PR. Amongst the 700+ people I follow on Twitter I'd wager that 90% of the tweets touch on this to some degree. But what about the use of social media for innovation efforts? That got us thinking here at Kalypso.
