Northern European private equity firm FSN Capital Partners has acquired Epista Life Sciences, a Danish IT consultancy for the life sciences sector.

FSN said that Epista has sales of DKK 119m (EUR 16m) in 2021 and has seen 30% annual growth since it was founded in 2009. 

CEO Klavs Esbjerg will retain a sizeable stake in the company. 

Epista Life Science

  • DEAL:

    Buyout

  • LOCATION:

    Hørsholm

  • SECTOR:

    Business services

  • FOUNDED:

    2009

  • TURNOVER:

    DKK 119m (EUR 16m)

  • STAFF:

The company is an IT consultancy firm focused on compliance and business in life sciences. 

Buyer FSN said it will continue a buy-and-build strategy to build a pan-European provider in the niche life science IT services and consulting market. 

The company has already acquired Swedish peer Bruun & Maté. 

FSN added that the company will benefit from strong underlying market growth supported by the digitalisation of the life science industry and growing regulatory requirements within IT and automation.
