The global medical simulation market is projected to reach USD 7.23 billion by 2030 from USD 3.50 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 15.6%. The demand for medical simulation is increasing as it is increasingly adopted in healthcare education to enhance patient care. Various educational institutions worldwide are adopting different types of medical simulation solutions, including high-fidelity mannequins, virtual reality environments, and simulated clinical scenarios. For example, the University of Michigan Medical School and Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin are focusing on implementing advanced simulator solutions across the country's various clinical and medical training environments, where complex clinical procedures and scenarios are conducted on real-time simulators.
Prominent players in the medical simulation market include Surgical Science Sweden AB (Sweden), Laerdal Medical (Norway), Gaumard Scientific Co. (US), Kyoto Kagaku (Japan), Limbs & Things (UK), Mentice AB (Sweden), Simulab Corporation (US), Simulaids (US), 3B Scientific (UK), and CAE, Inc. (Canada), among others. These companies adopted strategies such as product launches, expansions, agreements, partnerships, collaborations, and acquisitions to strengthen their market presence. For instance, in February 2025, Laerdal Medical (Norway) acquired SIMCharacters GmbH (Austria), which is known for developing high-fidelity neonatal simulators such as Paul and Emily. This acquisition was intended to expand its neonatal care training solutions. For instance, in September 2024, Laerdal Medical (Norway) launched SimMan Critical Care, an advanced patient simulator. This simulator was designed for critical care, anesthesia, and respiratory training.
