Parquest acquired a majority stake in the newly formed Imaneo group from its 70 associate radiologists. The transaction was the result of a competitive process involving both French and international private equity funds, as well as corporate interest from the life sciences sector. This strategic operation facilitates the merger of three independent radiology practices into a single unified platform. The associate radiologists, who were already shareholders in their respective legacy firms, reinvested significantly to retain nearly 50% of the new group's capital. The investment strategy is focused on structuring the newly created entity's management and operations to allow medical staff to focus on clinical practice while providing the financial resources for aggressive organic and external growth. A unitranche debt facility, including dedicated capital expenditure lines, was secured to fund innovation in medical technology and the acquisition of additional radiology practices across the region.
