Sale of CogniMed to Mehiläinen
3J Partners Oy acted as financial advisor to the sellers
in a transaction where CogniMed Oy, a provider of speech and occupational therapy services, was sold to Mehiläinen. As a result of the acquisition, 80 therapy professionals will transfer to Mehiläinen as existing employees and CogniMed will continue its operations as an independent company under Mehiläinen. The transaction has no impact on personnel or customers. The acquisition strengthens Mehiläinen’s therapy service offering in Helsinki, Espoo, Turku and Tampere.
“At CogniMed, the starting point for the entire business has always been the well-being of the personnel and a warm corporate culture based on a high sense of community. We believe that healthy personnel have the premises to provide customers with the highest quality service possible. We have noticed that we share this set of values seamlessly with Mehiläinen, which is why we feel that there are excellent starting points for a common future. We believe that alongside Mehiläinen, we have the most stable possible foundation to secure the continuity of our operations in the future, as the health and social services field is undergoing a wide-ranging transformation and the therapy field continues to consolidate,” says Riina Setälä, CEO of CogniMed.
“CogniMed’s expertise and professionals’ strong experience in speech therapy is exceptional in the field. CogniMed complements Mehiläinen’s therapy services nicely, sharing similar values and a positive spirit. I look forward to developing the therapy field further together and getting to know each other. We warmly welcome CogniMed’s employees and practitioners to Mehiläinen,” says Hanna Hovi, Director of Therapy Services at Mehiläinen.
