Gyrus carves out PwC Italia's consulting business

The business, which will be rebranded, will continue to be led by its current management team, who will participate alongside Gyrus in the buyout.

Gyrus intends to expand the company's team and further broaden its product offering in Italy and internationally.

Based in Geneva, Switzerland, Gyrus is a private equity firm focused on transformational investments in businesses operating across the healthcare and sustainability sectors, with long-term, sustainable growth potential. Gyrus has a focus on complex transactions, with particular focus on corporate carve-outs and turnarounds.

The carve-out of PwC Italia's consultancy business follows the 2019 carve-out of occupational health, risk and safety consultancy DuPont Sustainable Solutions from EI DuPont de Nemours.

Gyrus recently also completed the carve-out of Corcym – a medical device company dedicated to addressing structural heart disease – from Nasdaq-listed LivaNova.
