A few giant tech companies seek to dominate every aspect of our lives, including our health. Google is buying health monitoring company Senosis Health to further its stealthy move into health.
Another PE firm has purchased a majority interest in Medical Knowledge, another company which is engaged in the honorable (and profitable) business of pimping for drug and biotech companies is pushing their products on consumers and providers.
Oh boy, Buoy Health gets a lift by raising $6.7 million in new funding for its digital tools that help people get the right care!! Sounds like a winner.
Lots of CRO deals lately. Now Evotec, a Germany-based vendor focusing on pre-clinical development, is acquiring Aptuit, which provides similar services, for $300 million.
This is what happens when you don't have a fruit in your company name, you get sold. Nursing home pharmacy chain Pharmerica is being bought by a PE firm for $1.4 billion. No word yet on whether the name will be changed to Pharnana.
