Hologic (Nasdaq:HOLX) announced today that it opened its new innovation center in Aix-en-Provence, France.
Marlborough, Massachusetts-based Hologic’s new innovation center follows on the back of the company’s 2019 acquisition of Aix-en-Provence-based SuperSonic Imagine, supporting its commitment to the EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) region.
According to a news release, the new commercial office, training and research and development facility will support the company’s ultrasound, interventional and surgical solutions across breast healthcare. It will also serve as the company’s new French headquarters.
Hologic said the facility will operate as a hub to bring new innovations to market, expanding access to new women’s health technologies in the European market.
“Hologic is a global champion for women’s health and brings innovative technologies to healthcare professionals helping them detect, diagnose and treat illnesses and health conditions earlier and more effectively,” Hologic France GM Antoine Bara said in the release. “The significant investment being made in France is another example of Hologic’s relentless commitment to innovation and its mission to improve the health and well-being of 3.9 billion woman globally.”
