http://www.reportlinker.com/p0128140/2008/2009-Healthcare-Research-Review.html
Despite the global economic slowdown that began in 2008 and continues into 2009, technology markets in healthcare and related industries remain strong. Companies that provide technology products or related services to healthcare markets are well-positioned to weather the current weak economy and be poised to take full advantage of these growing markets when recovery arrives.
