I was trying to determine who our competitors are
after looking at the subtitles on the analyst suture market
in which there are over 53 competitors

An internet search of live tissue welding also indicates
that there are laser firms engaged in this as well that may
or may not be competitors be competitors


I also looked at Starion,Circon-ACMi and Cnwd
that seems like it is engaged in arthoscopy and laparscopy

It appears that whatever sutureless surgery that we would be competing against in price vs silk sutures or absorbant tape
would have to be cost productive as well.

Taking into consideration the $25 K generator and the
disposable hand tools that will cost $200-$800 per unit
the use of this technology would only lend itself only
to higher priced surgeries


Can anyone shed any thoughts on who are our competition
and applicable pricing for this product because it seems
like we might not be able to compete against absorbable tape
or sutures made from silk or cat gut.
