Transformational Investments through Carve-outs in Healthcare
Gyrus Capital and McKinsey & Company hosted an event highlighting how carve-outs, when executed with discipline, leadership, and sector expertise, can unlock the full potential of non-core healthcare assets and transform them into more focused companies.
Key takeaways
- Creating a new standalone entity involves reshaping commercial structures, support functions and operations as well as reevaluating strategic priorities.
- Strong governance, transparent communication, and engaged leadership teams are essential to navigate uncertainty during the transition. These elements help unlock change and energise teams with clarity and purpose.
- Private equity plays an enabling role beyond capital, offering sector expertise, carve-out experience, and hands-on operational support to accelerate the transformation. Choosing the right partner – one with strong industry knowledge and operating experience – is therefore critical
