Interview of Antoine Amer, MD, Founder & CEO, Enosium Life Science
Paris, October 03, 2024 – Enosium Life Science, a group specialized in life sciences, accelerates its growth with three strategic acquisitions in France and the United Kingdom. By integrating Inbeeo, Vyoo Agency and Epione, Enosium Life Science distinguishes itself in Europe with a unique offering of tailored and innovative solutions, addressing the needs of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and Medtech industries.
Inbeeo and Vyoo Agency support pharmaceutical and medtech companies with personalized strategies and solutions, facilitating market access and the value optimization of innovative drugs in a particularly complex environment regarding pricing, access conditions and commercialization in Europe.
The French group Epione and its three entities—KPL, the French specialist in medical affairs; Alinéa Plus, the entity dedicated to scientific events and conferences; and Sirius Customizer, specializing in strategic consulting and patient’s journey—bring their expertise and know-how in medical communication to meet the needs of healthcare stakeholders with scientific rigor and creativity.
These acquisitions mark a major milestone in Enosium Life Science’s growth, with consolidated revenues nearing €15 million and a team of 70 employees. Specifically, this reinforces the group’s ambition to build a multi-specialist organization covering the entire value chain of healthcare products, from clinical development to commercialization.
Enosium Life Science plans to continue its external growth strategy in the coming months while focusing on integrating and developing synergies between its various entities. These synergies will help create a unique, high-value consulting offering to support clients in successfully launching their innovations across Europe.
