The acquisition is intended to complement Medopad’s health technology and support its strategy to advance the healthtech ecosystem.

Medopad CEO and founder Dan Vahdat said: “Acquiring Sherbit fits within our strategy to bring the healthtech ecosystem closer together, and to realise our vision to create a world where people can live longer.
