摘要

Objectives

The objective of this dataset is to provide multi-stakeholder survey data collected across enterprises, academia, and government within South Africa’s medical device innovation system. The data was collected to provide data-driven insights into the country’s medical device innovation system, addressing the urgent need for local medical device development due to inappropriate imported devices. This survey is a critical input into a broader goal: the development of a decision support framework to guide local medical device development in South Africa.

Data description

The dataset comprises multi-stakeholder survey responses, organized in two primary Excel sheets per stakeholder group namely: ‘Variables’ (questionnaire items) and ‘Data’ (raw, anonymized responses). It includes 90 responses (61 completed, 29 partial) from government (53.8% response rate), enterprises (27.2% response rate), and academia (60% response rate). This data is valuable for understanding stakeholder perceptions, demographic information, and insights into key innovation activities within the South African medical device Technology Innovation System, offering a robust foundation for analysing operational dynamics, challenges, and opportunities.
