Johnson & Johnson (Emerging Market Need)

The Asia Pacific region is home to more than 4 billion people, almost 60 percent of the world’s population. While the more affluent societies, such as Japan, Australia, coastal China and metropolitan India, have access to innovative products and services, a large segment of the population has been unable to access or afford much beyond a very basic level of health care until now.
Recent health care reforms in China and India, spurred by continuing economic growth in these countries, are creating possibilities for governments to deliver a higher standard of care to many more people. Such reforms, along with the rise of a middle class and expectations of a better quality of life, are providing Johnson & Johnson with an enormous opportunity to address a previously underserved market.
These mass markets are being addressed with a different business model that is focused on bringing an appropriate portfolio of technology and products to smaller and more rural health care settings, matching the specific range of procedures offered. This approach has led to the development of high-quality, affordable products that provide superior outcomes for patients who would not otherwise have access to such technology.
