In this episode Omar Khateeb, Founder of MarketCraft, breaks down the biggest trend reshaping MedTech in 2026: the explosion of "Mini-Strategics." These multi-billion dollar, pure-play spin-outs from giants like J&J and 3M are becoming focused acquirers, finally addressing the industry's chronic exit and liquidity problem. Omar explains how this creates a virtuous cycle, unlocking capital for earlier-stage risk and bolder innovation. He then provides founders with a concrete, 5-step playbook to build leverage, engineer their market category, and position their company as an inevitable acquisition target. Packed with insights on capital allocation, market narratives, and tactical GTM strategy, this solo pod is a masterclass in navigating the new MedTech landscape.
