Healthcare startups are set for increased mergers and acquisitions in 2025, driven by cash-strapped firms, declining revenue multiples, and investor caution, particularly in diagnostics and care delivery.
Healthcare startups are poised for increased mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the current calendar year as revenue multiples decline and cash-strapped firms struggle in a tight funding market, according to early-stage healthcare-focused investment firm W Health Ventures.
The consolidation wave is expected to be most pronounced in diagnostics, where large pathology chains are likely to acquire smaller, hyperlocal labs and radiology centres to expand their geographic reach. Care delivery companies specialising in single fields such as IVF, eyecare, and oncology may also see exits, with promoters selling to private equity-backed platforms, said Namit Chugh, principal at W Health Ventures.
