Banook Group, global provider of technology and services for clinical trial operators, today announces two strategic acquisitions that enhance its offerings in central imaging and eCOA. Currently a European leader in cardiac safety, Banook brings onboard Keosys, a specialist in central imaging, and B.Research, an eCOA platform based in Australia, to strengthen the Group’s offering and footprint. Financial terms were not disclosed.
By acquiring Keosys and B.Research, the Banook Group becomes a leading technological service provider of clinical trials, with close to 120 employees worldwide and a direct presence in Europe (France, Germany, UK, Italy), North America (USA, Canada) and Asia-Pacific (Australia). The Group is now a key partner for world-renowned pharmaceutical laboratories, biotechnology companies and Contract Research Organizations (CROs).
“With the acquisition of Nabios in Germany in 2021 we secured our leading position in cardiac safety in Europe. We are now strengthening our central imaging activity with Keosys and expanding our offerings with eCOA through B.Research. These also enable us to reach a critical size. To continue responding to our client demands, we are focused on accelerating our international development, particularly in the United States, and diversifying our offers. Our priority is to offer an excellent and comprehensive service while continuing our innovation efforts to support the health of tomorrow,” said Alexandre Durand-Salmon, CEO of Banook Group.
