Global Medical Technology Alliance - Proposal for a COVID-19 Thought Partnership Forum

The global COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented need for a dramatic increase in supply of medical technology.  Despite round-the-clock efforts to ramp up supply, including creative partnerships and “crowdsource” solutions, supply is likely to remain short of demand for a crucial period.  In this situation, it is essential to have coordination and collaboration of governments and global institutions in order to help keep supply chains open, ensure the best possible exchange of supply and demand data, and to support efficient, fair, and data- and science-driven allocation of scarce products.
