On April 15, 2024, the Edan Surgical Innovation Experience Center (hereinafter referred to as the "Innovation Experience Center") was officially launched in Baoshan High-Tech Zone, Shanghai. According to reports, the Innovation Experience Center showcases Edan Medical's cutting-edge innovations in the field of minimally invasive surgery. As an innovation experience base for Edan's integrated solutions such as ultra-abdominal combined surgery, multi-scope combined surgery, and intelligent operating rooms, it will leverage Baoshan District's policy support and Shanghai's advantages in international medical device exchanges to focus on the popularization of minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment concepts and technologies, creating a new model of "industry-research-medicine-education" matrix development and internationalization. Zheng Yichuan, Member of the Standing Committee of the Baoshan District Committee and Executive Deputy District Chief of Shanghai, affirmed Edan Medical's layout in Baoshan in his speech: "Baoshan is in a period of transformation and development, evolving from a traditional manufacturing hub into a main urban area of a modern international metropolis. We focus on six major industries, one of the most important being the biopharmaceutical industry. After years of effort, companies in this field have grown from scratch and become one of Baoshan's leading industries. Therefore, the establishment of the Edan Surgical Innovation Experience Center in Baoshan is timely and of great significance for promoting the development of the surgical industry." China's minimally invasive surgery has developed for over 30 years, with advantages such as small incisions and quick recovery, and has become widely adopted in clinical surgery. For many years, international brands have dominated the surgical field. As the only domestic company with fully independent R&D capabilities in laparoscopy, ultrasound, and endoscopy, Edan Medical leverages its industrial chain advantages of "multi-product line development and high-intensity R&D investment" to flexibly combine solutions based on clinical needs, providing specialized and professional integrated solutions, thus forming a unique competitive edge. Wu Kunxiang, President of Edan Medical, stated: "Edan Medical's core competitiveness lies in the independent R&D and manufacturing of medical equipment. We have an R&D engineering team of over 700 people, accounting for about 27% of the company's total workforce. R&D investment accounts for 20% of total annual revenue. In addition to establishing the Innovation Experience Center in Shanghai, the company has also set up a surgical product R&D center in Germany, quickly launching multiple new surgical R&D projects covering imaging systems, electronic scopes, optical scopes, supporting equipment, and instruments to meet diverse clinical needs." Wu Kunxiang, President of Edan Medical At the same time, with the popularization of surgical techniques and the development of clinical needs, minimally invasive surgery has gradually entered a new era, forming a development direction of internal medicine becoming surgical, surgery becoming minimally invasive, and minimally invasive becoming precise. This also places higher demands on domestic high-end minimally invasive equipment for precision and intelligence. Professor Zheng Minhua, a pioneer in the promotion of minimally invasive surgical techniques in China and head of the Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Surgery Group of the Chinese Medical Association's Surgery Branch, pointed out in his speech that innovations in medical devices have driven the development of the surgical field. Over the past decade, the domestic medical device industry has seen rapid development, accelerating progress in minimally invasive surgery. In the next phase of development, we hope to promote collaborative exploration between Edan and clinical practice through 'medical-engineering integration,' developing high-quality, cost-effective products to elevate new productive forces to a higher level." ### Related Stocks - [300633.CN - SONOSCAPE](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/300633.CN.md) - [IN00304.US - Health Care Equipment](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IN00304.US.md) --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
