Springer Nature Health has acquired an Austrian health tech start-up, Medbee. For nearly a century, Springer Nature has been providing doctors, dentists and pharmacists with trusted insights - advancing medical knowledge for the benefit of patients. Its health division brings together brands such as Springer Medizin, Springer Healthcare and Bohn Stafleu van Loghum, providing better diagnostics, treatment and care of patients.
The addition of Medbee, a leading professional online network for doctors in Austria, to Springer Medizin demonstrates the commitment of Springer Nature to provide high-quality specialist communication tools for the healthcare sector. Medbee’s app solutions enable data and documents to be individually organised and accessed via smartphones, making it easy to use in everyday practice situations. The app also offers networking with individuals and institutions, including a chat function and can be downloaded free of charge from the App Store and Google Play.
One key output of this partnership will be a virtual panel focusing on ’Achieving Health Equity Together – Forging the Path Forward’. on September 13.
This follows Springer Nature Health’s acquisition last year of Dentallect, a Netherlands-based e-learning platform that specialises in training for dental assistants, and the addition to the Springer portfolio of two specialist journals focusing on pain management and the education platform PAINS.
