JRI ORTHOPAEDICS LTD
JRI Orthopaedics is based in Sheffield
and we design and manufacture
orthopaedic implants. Our company has
been a committed member of Medilink
Yorkshire and Humber for ten years.
Being a Medilink member has helped
us to engage across the Healthcare
Technology sector, including new
markets, new technology and ways to
improve patient care.
As a long standing Medilink member
and Medilink board member, it gives me
great pleasure to welcome you to this
membership themed issue of

Medilink has assisted JRI in identifying
cutting edge technologies, providing
the opportunities to host international
delegations from high growth markets as
well as UK Trade & Investment briefing
tours. Medilink has also worked with us
to provide high level access to strategic
national initiatives and was instrumental
in the launch of our new state of the
art facilities.
