Andrea Fiumicelli, CEO of Dedalus Group, said: "Dosing brings solutions and capabilities that are essential for the digital transformation of the healthcare ecosystem - the core of our vision.

Their solutions provide sophisticated and complex medication capabilities that are characterised both by their scope and expertise.

This acquisition is an important step to complement our content provider offering in Germany, Austria and Switzerland."

Jens Kaltschmidt, CEO of Dosing, said: "We develop state-of-the-art software to enable safe medication processes. For us, 'Ease of use' is as important as data quality and accurate process integration. Globally recognised academic institutions support us, and our team of experts works hand in hand with renowned business partners. What drives us is the safety and well-being of each and every patient."
