Following the recent acquisition of Quoretex in May 2022, ProductLife Group (PLG), a global leader in regulatory and compliance services for the life sciences industry, expands its service offering by acquiring Pharma IT.

The acquisition of Pharma IT will enable PLG to strengthen its foothold in Northern Europe and offer new services in the context of life sciences digitalization.

Paris, France – ProductLife Group (PLG), a global provider of specialized services for the Pharmaceutical, Medtech and Biotech industries, recently acquired Pharma IT, a life sciences consulting company headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The company consists of 140 skilled consultants and specializes in quality and compliance, management consulting, drug development and information technology. The addition of Pharma IT will reinforce PLG’s existing quality management & compliance offering with expertise in the field of IT systems implementation, validation and compliance.

Pharma IT’s specialist expertise will enable us to further drive business in the Nordics, more specifically in the Medicon Valley, and expand our quality management & compliance service line worldwide. It also allows the organization to expand on the Pharma 4.0 and digital transformation journey that we have been pursuing recently,” Xavier added.

“Our mission is to provide our clients with unsurpassed technical expertise combined with quality service, and we know we have found the same in PLG.
