The GBA Group is continuing its international growth strategy by acquiring the Dutch company BAAT Holding B.V. (BAAT Medical), a leading provider of design and development services for medical devices. With this strategic acquisition, the GBA Group strengthens its position in the European medical device market, among other things by expanding its service portfolio in the development phase from the product idea to product development and successful market launch.
BAAT Medical was founded in the Netherlands in 1999 and is based in Hengelo. Baat Medical offers its international customers a wide range of services in the development, implementation and maintenance of medical devices based on international quality standards such as ISO 13485 and the legal framework of the MDR (EU) and FDA (USA).
Steffen Walter, CEO GBA Group, welcomes the new colleagues: “With BAAT Medical, we have found a partner that perfectly complements our existing service portfolio in the field of medical devices. In addition to testing and consulting, we can now also offer development services from a single source within the GBA Group and support customers in all phases of the product life cycle with solutions and regulatory expertise.”
“It was crucial for BAAT Medical to find a partner that not only brings a complementary network in the medical field and a physical presence outside Europe, but also respects our identity and way of working. GBA Group meets all these criteria and shares our vision of growth opportunities, making the partnership an ideal fit,” explains Gert Nijenbanning, General Manager BAAT Medical.
