UK-based Creo Medical focuses on the development and commercialisation of minimally invasive electrosurgical devices. Its six products in the flagship CROMA platform have all been CE marked, with five cleared by the FDA. Acquired in 2020, Albyn Medical provides Creo with profitable products and a direct salesforce in Europe.

Creo’s products are in a large and lucrative market. Conmed estimates that the GI endoscopic technologies market is worth c $3.0–3.2bn and the radiofrequency energy-based surgical device market is worth $2.7–2.9bn pa. Entering the robotics and laparoscopic markets further increases the scale of opportunity open to Creo.

Creo Medical is developing and commercialising minimally invasive endoscopic electrosurgical devices. Its CROMA advanced energy platform delivers a combination of advanced bipolar radiofrequency and microwave energy for the dissection, resection, ablation and haemostasis of diseased tissue. Its initial focus is on GI tract procedures, soft tissue (eg pancreas and liver) and pulmonology. It has six products CE marked, with five cleared by the FDA. Its first commercially available device, Speedboat Inject, is used across the globe. It reported 13% y-o-y growth in FY23 sales following Speedboat Inject’s European clearance for upper GI procedures and the launch of Creo’s slimmest electrosurgical device, Speedboat UltraSlim. With MicroBlate and SpydrBlade nearing commercial launch and increased traction with partners Intuitive Surgical and CMR Surgical, we anticipate the product uptake curve to steepen in the medium term.
