Regulatory Hurdles Present Major Issues

  • Regulations in Japan's medical device industry are stringent, with approval timelines exceeding 460 weeks on average, causing innovation delays.
  • Implementing smoother compliance practices by streamlining internal approvals can help mitigate these industry red tape delays, improving product entry timeline.

Technological Advancement Fuels Opportunities

  • Japan leads in technological advancements, with the medical IoT sector expanding at a CAGR of 22%. This rapid increase underscores vast innovation potential.
  • Leaders leverage this growth through integrated tech solutions, enhancing network capabilities in existing products, emphasizing efficient IoT-based responses to growing technological demands.

Expanding Elderly Population Boosts Demand

  • Japan's aging population, projected to consist of 38% aged 65 or older by 2060, signifies persistent demand on medical caregiver aids.

What Our Clients Say About Us

"I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude for all the effort and commitment that YCP showed us during this project. Although building detailed strategies for different countries within a tough time constraint is without any doubt a demanding and challenging task, YCP did a fabulous job. I believe that the success in this project laid a foundation for building a strong relationship between YCP and GS Caltex, and I promise that YCP will be the first one to be contacted whenever GSC needs any help for growth."

"During the course of the process, I found YCP highly capable to support Toyota to better understand “ASEAN countries”. We usually work with Japanese consulting company and from their report, we can be a “book smart” but can’t have a clear picture of what’s going on in the real market. The project with YCP brought us “real market experience”. YCP's local consultants got their hands dirty in the marketplace with me. This approach enabled me to understand critical consumer insights behind data. I found it very valuable experience. Thank you very much."
