Technology & Healthcare Transactions

The artificial intelligence sector saw a major strategic deployment as Anthropic acquired stealth biotech startup Coefficient Bio for an estimated $400 million in stock, according to filings reported by The Information, signaling continued PE-adjacent investment in foundational model integration within life sciences. Shifting focus to services, Advent Partners-backed efex purchased Priority 1 IT, a move intended to broaden efex's delivery model and enhance its capacity to handle complex technological requirements, particularly within the healthcare vertical. Concurrently, the specialty pharmaceutical space experienced a divestiture as GHO Capital sold provider VISUfarma to Lupin Limited, a transaction designed to accelerate Lupin’s European specialty franchise buildout and provide immediate accretion to its earnings profile.
