Empresaria buys stakes in firms

August 04, 2008

London-based staffing firm Empresaria Group PLC acquired a 60% stake in MediradiX Oy of Finland and MediradiX Oü of Estonia. The firms provide doctors, dentists and nurses for hospitals and health centers. The buys mark Empresaria's first entry into Finland and Estonia. The company now operates in 22 countries, including the Gerard Stewart brand in the U.S.

"MediradiX operates in a region with significant growth opportunities," said Empresaria Chief Executive Miles Hunt. "There is an increasing trend of Estonian doctors applying for permission to work abroad, providing MediradiX with a strong pool of candidates in a sector experiencing a skills shortage in Finland."
