On February 22, Stratford client Calian announced it had pulled the trigger on its largest acquisition to date with the purchase of Toronto-based digital health-care and cybersecurity firm Dapasoft. The company's infrastructure connects hospitals to the cloud and is used in more than 30 institutions across Canada, adding to Calian’s diversification strategy with services that span both health-care and technology.
In a recent feature in the Ottawa Business Journal, Calian CEO Kevin Ford spoke of how Dapasoft will add to the company's growing portfolio, saying:
“What I like is we’re getting three very distinct assets that will now strengthen our IT services business. Now, we can take our IT segment and our health-care segment and talk to customers about full-scope health care requirements."
