In commenting on Compumedics’ market growth in China, Dr David Burton, Chairman and CEO of Compumedics, said:

“Compumedics has a significant presence in China and has spent more than a decade with our Chinese partners, building a foundation for future growth in one of the world’s most challenging but highest growth markets.

“Compumedics is now the number one supplier of premium sleep diagnostic and neurological research systems in China and is carving out a similar position in TCD systems.

“As a result, Compumedics is well positioned to capture growth, across all the medical products it sells into the China market.”

Compumedics is also pleased to announce the engagement of Mr Steve Otto to expedite the commercialisation of the Company’s new CURRY® MEG technology.

Mr. Otto was previously Chairman and COO of Elekta Neuromag, the dominant supplier to the existing MEG world market.

CURRY® MEG technology is a combination of Compumedics’ existing world leading CURRY® brain analysis software and the Korean Research Institute of Standards and Science’s (KRISS) highly innovative and superior magnetoencephalography (MEG) hardware.

CURRY® MEG is a major strategic initiative for Compumedics, which has the potential to add incremental revenues of $10m pa or more, within the next 24 months.

Compumedics recently announced it had secured a worldwide license from KRISS to exploit KRISS’ intellectual property rights to this hardware.

In commenting on Mr Otto’s appointment, Dr David Burton, Chairman and CEO of Compumedics, said:

“The Company is pleased that Mr Otto joins us at this time, as we not only see a significant opportunity for MEG around the world, but see China as a very large emerging market for MEG specifically.

“Mr. Otto’s knowledge and significant experience with MEG will assist the Company to move ahead at a fast pace with its commercialisation plans in order to meet this emerging market.”
