During first half of 2022, deals relating to healthtech accounted for 12.8% of all deals taking place in the sector. This represents a decrease from the figure of 14.6% in the first half of 2021.

GlobalData's thematic approach to sector activity seeks to group key company information on investments to see which industries are best placed to deal with any issues they may encounter. 

These themes, of which healthtech is one, are best thought of as "any issue that keeps a CEO awake at night", and by tracking them, it becomes possible to ascertain which companies are leading the way on specific issues and which ones have some work to do.
