Our Corporate Finance team advises LDC-backed RDi on their acquisition of Inicio Health

Our Corporate Finance team recently provided financial due diligence services to LDC-backed RDi on their acquisition of Inicio Health, a leading provider of healthcare interoperability, automation and AI-driven solutions.

Inicio Health is at the forefront of transforming healthcare systems through cutting-edge technology that enhances data integration, improves patient outcomes, and streamlines operational efficiency. With deep expertise in intelligent automation and a strong track record in delivering scalable digital health solutions, Inicio Health has become a trusted partner to NHS organisations and private healthcare providers across the UK.

RDi, a leader in digital transformation for regulated sectors, has acquired Inicio Health to strengthen its position in the growing healthcare technology market. Supported by RDi’s investment and resources, Inicio Health is set to accelerate growth, expand its offerings, and enhance its impact in UK healthcare. The partnership will also drive innovation and improve efficiencies across the healthcare system.

David Cahill, CEO of RDi, commented: “This is a truly exciting moment for RDi and for the future of digitally driven prevention and self-sampling. Inicio Health has built an outstanding reputation for their interoperability solutions which take away many of the pain points faced by healthcare providers and CIOs."

James Davis, Co-Founder and CEO of Inicio Health, commented: “Inicio Health was founded on the principle of improving the digital systems that healthcare providers use and therefore empowering systems to be joined up and ultimately seamless for the good of each and every one of us. By joining forces with RDi, we can supercharge that vision by integrating our expertise in healthcare systems with RDi’s home testing, screening, pathology and self-sampling, to create truly end-to-end healthcare solutions. I’m thrilled to take on the role of CTO at RDi and drive the next generation of digital health technologies including automation and AI solutions.”

Aylesh Patel, Partner and Head of South at LDC, commented: “This is a key milestone for RDi and represents a significant step in the expansion of its services and capabilities. The adoption of digital technologies is transforming the accessibility of healthcare for patients, and combining RDi’s strengths in automated self-sampling with Inicio Health’s expertise in digital interoperability and AI-driven solutions creates a compelling proposition. We look forward to continuing to support David and the rest of the management team on their exciting growth journey.”

Brad McAvoy, who led the team at James Cowper Kreston Corporate Finance, commented: “We are delighted to have supported LDC-backed RDi on this acquisition. Inicio Health is an innovative business operating in a key area of healthcare, and this partnership will support their continued development and impact. It’s been a pleasure working with the teams at RDi and LDC, and we look forward to seeing their continued success.”
