The partnership will provide greater access to affordable primary joint replacements and other healthcare services to patients in India.
In addition to a commitment to provide access to its joint replacement and trauma products and technology, Stryker will sponsor a postgraduate training and education centre on the campus of one of IUIH’s medicities and continue to collaborate with research and development through the Global Technology Centre in India.

“The partnership with Stryker is set to redefine the existing paradigms in healthcare industry,” added Ajay Rajan Gupta, managing director and group CEO at IUIH. “With predictable orthopaedic spend, improved cash flow and optimised use of technology resources, the agreement with Stryker will enhance IUIH’s value in healthcare space in years to come.”
