Benchmark International is pleased to announce the acquisition of Medius by regenold.
Medius, based near Basel, Switzerland, was founded in 1997 by Dr. Urs Rickenbacher and is a consulting and service firm for medical and healthcare products. As a marketing authorization holder, it assists companies in marketing their products in Switzerland and other countries.
Founded in 1994, regenold offers a full suite of regulatory services from development to market access and life cycle management for pharmaceuticals, medical devices, cosmetics, food supplements and other products. Headquartered in Badenweiler, Germany, regenold serves an international client base supported by its subsidiaries in the UK, Switzerland and Portugal, along with its proprietary network, regulanet.
To increase its presence in Switzerland and to support Medius’s national and international growth, regenold acquired a majority stake in Medius from founder and owner Dr. Rickenbacher, who will remain on board as managing shareholder.
Dr. Rickenbacher commented on the transaction: “With regenold, I am very glad to have found a strategic partner with long-term growth prospects who will ensure the continued existence and further development of Medius. I would like to thank Benchmark for their ongoing support and expert advice throughout the whole M&A transaction process.”
Dr. Max Regenold said about the deal: “regenold has been operating successfully in Switzerland for several years with various services in the pharmaceutical and medical products sector. We see a growing demand for services from Swiss customers in the biotech sector, among others. This has led regenold to the decision to expand our business in Switzerland with local qualified resources and extended domain expertise. Medius AG, with its broad expertise, a strong customer base, and a Swissmedic approved establishment license ideally complements regenold in this respect.”
