Clearstate

Clearstate operates as a specialized market intelligence and strategic advisory firm focused on the medical technology (medtech) and life sciences industries. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Singapore, the company provides data-driven intelligence to help organizations build successful and sustainable businesses. In April 2012, Clearstate was acquired by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the research and analysis division of The Economist Group, which expanded its capabilities within the healthcare sector in the Asia Pacific region. More recently, in January 2025, FPE Capital, a software and services-focused private equity firm, invested in Clearstate, acquiring it from The Economist Group to support its continued global growth. The business is led by CEO Ivy Teh.

The company's business model is centered on providing data, research, and consulting services to a global client base of leading medtech and life sciences companies. Revenue is generated through subscriptions to its market data solutions and fees for custom strategic consulting projects. Clearstate serves its clients by offering insights that inform strategic and operational decision-making, competitor tracking, and sales forecasting. The firm has a global presence, with an experienced team of over 80 healthcare analysts and evidence experts across EMEA, North America, Asia, and Latin America.

Clearstate's core offerings are structured around several data gateways and consulting services. The IVD Gateway is a resource for tracking market size, share, and trends in the in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) market. Similarly, the Surgical Gateway provides data on surgical procedure volumes and device markets, while the Medical Consumables Gateway tracks market data for over 200 product segments. A notable product is the Company Insights Monitor, which delivers in-depth quarterly reports on the commercial activities of top IVD companies in China, covering sales performance, market activities, and responses to policy changes. These products are designed to help clients identify growth opportunities, develop new products, and formulate sales outreach strategies in complex and dynamic global markets.
