Midea Finalizes Acquisition of Esaote
The Chinese technology group Midea has finalized the acquisition of a majority stake in Italian medical imaging company Esaote. This move is intended to strengthen synergies between Esaote and Midea's Healthcare Division, enhancing their global competitiveness. Esaote will remain an independent entity under Midea Healthcare but benefit from targeted investments in R&D, operations, and production capabilities. The partnership aims to provide better access to a broader technological ecosystem, complementary imaging technologies, and expanded innovation platforms for Esaote. This acquisition also strengthens Midea's position in the global medical imaging market. Midea’s existing product range complements Esaote’s high-end brand reputation across ultrasound, open MRI systems, and digital angiography (DSA). The company will continue to be led by Franco Fontana as CEO.
