About us

Bringing our expertise in healthcare to support your development

Vivalto Partners is an independent management company approved by the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (“AMF”), specialized in healthcare investments. We invest in small and mid-sized profitable companies and team-up with their management teams to assist them in their development, bringing capital in addition to a strategic and operational assistance.

Founded in 2021 by Daniel Caille, who pioneered the private hospital space in France, Vivalto Partners brings together healthcare experts and investment professionals with an ambition to support companies working towards a better quality of care to address the great challenges of the healthcare sector transformation in Europe.

An investment company solely dedicated to healthcare

Healthcare expenditures in Europe have been growing steadily for several decades. With little correlation to economic cycles, their evolution is linked to an ageing population, the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, increasing sensitivity to the theme of well-being and the development of innovations. The European healthcare market is resilient, protected by high barriers to entry linked to regulation, technology, reputation and investment requirements.

There are around 5,000 large independent SMEs and small ETIs in Western Europe, most of which were founded in the 1980s and 1990s. Vivalto Partners can offer solutions to these challenges, which include buyouts, external growth financing, internationalization and investment in innovation.

Investment strategy

When selecting new investments and supporting portfolio companies on operations, financing, M&A and other selected topics, Vivalto Partners relies on the combined experience of its investment team, a broad set of exclusive experts and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) from its network, in addition to Senior Advisors with highly relevant experiences in leading companies within their respective healthcare verticals.
