MedLife’s stock exchange journey in numbers
from BR/05/2023
MedLife became a public company through a high-profile IPO that successfully closed in 2016, and it has continued to deliver growth across the board since then. One year after its listing, the medical services company was included in the reference BET index of the Bucharest Stock Exchange; in 2022, MedLife was included in FTSE Russell's Emerging Markets indices.
The company became the first private medical services operator in Romania to exceed an annual turnover of EUR 400 million. MedLife’s vision is to develop large scale medical hubs in major Romanian cities and offer integrated services, while also investing in digitalization and innovation.
