Executive Summary
In the latest of a series of deals in what many industry executives and analysts consider to be the next blockbuster device product market, Boston Scientific became the third major vascular player to buy its way into the renal denervation space with its recent acquisition of Vessix Vascular for a sum that could amount to $425 million. With this deal, Boston Scientific joins Medtronic, which led the way in 2010 with its stunning potentially billion dollar acquisition of Ardian, followed earlier this year by Covidien’s acquisition of Maya Medical.
