Global healthcare communications company SCIRIS is delighted to announce the acquisition of UK-based Source Health Economics – an agency specialising in health economics and outcomes research (HEOR).

The development is the latest in SCIRIS’ rapid expansion, having over the last two years acquired six agencies with considerable scientific and commercial expertise on both sides of the Atlantic.

Isaac Batley, CEO of SCIRIS, said: “I am hugely excited that Source is joining the SCIRIS family. They have built a great business, have a strong client base and a fantastic reputation for scientific expertise and rigour, and – importantly for us – have a leadership team that puts people first. At SCIRIS, we pride ourselves on making the connections that help our global clients achieve success across all phases of brand development, and the high-quality HEOR service that Source provides strengthens our ability to do just that. I am really looking forward to working with Juliet, David and the whole team at Source.”

Juliet Mumby-Croft, co-founder and joint Managing Director of Source, said: “This is a very exciting next step for Source Health Economics. We’re looking forward to working as part of a company that has a shared people-centric ethos and benefiting from the collective wisdom and collaboration that SCIRIS provides.”

It opens up lots of exciting possibilities to collaborate with new partners in order to achieve what has always been our mission: to achieve the best possible outcome for patients and clients.”
