Frankfurt (Germany), Naarden (Netherlands), 9 March 2021
“We are excited to support the management and employees of Bergman Clinics by investing in and supporting the growth and European expansion of the clinics network,” said Peder Prahl, Director of the General Partner for the Triton funds.
Bergman Clinics is a leading specialist for treatments in the field of orthopedics, ophthalmology, gynecology, aesthetic medicine, cardiology, gastroenterology, dermatology, and vascular medicine. Bergman Clinics grew its network of clinics through an active acquisition strategy, first in the Dutch home market, later on in Scandinavia and Germany. Bergman Clinics currently owns 140 focus clinics throughout the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Germany which offer high quality, plannable medical care, with clients and their conditions at the heart of their activities.
The investment by Triton will help Bergman Clinics to further expand its geographical footprint, and creates room to invest in technological innovation, digitization and training. Both clients and employees can benefit directly from this.
“Bergman Clinics is strongly positioned in the field of outpatient care which is an increasingly important part of the healthcare services sector. The company has a strong medical platform and digital backbone to further expand as a focused specialty care player in Europe,” emphasized Anja Bickelmaier, Co-Head of Healthcare at Triton.
“The clinic has a strong brand in the Netherlands and we are looking forward to support its development in core markets where Triton has been investing for more than two decades,” added Koos van de Linde, Investment Advisory Professional at Triton.
“We are pleased to welcome Triton as a new investor and strong partner who will support Bergman Clinics’ ongoing journey towards high-quality client-oriented treatment at affordable prices. We will not only benefit from Triton’s expertise in the healthcare sector and in particular in healthcare services, but also from its international network,” said Hans van der Heijden, CEO of Bergman Clinics.
Bart Malenstein, Owner and Member of the Supervisory Board of Bergman Clinics added: “Triton is the ideal partner to shape the future of Bergman Clinics. Triton has extensive experience in the healthcare sector and a broad network within its portfolio that can help us by exchanging knowledge and best practices across several areas and regions, benefiting clients who are at the heart of what we do.”
