Welcome
Caudex Medical Ltd merges with Fission Communications
Inc
On 1 January 2008, Fission Communications Inc,
a US-based medical communications company, which, like Caudex, is
part of the renowned McCann Healthcare Worldwide Group, merged with
Caudex Medical Ltd.
This merger is an important step in achieving
our vision for a truly global medical communications offering, with
the capability to serve at the global, regional and local level. It
will reinforce Caudex’s leading position in strategic communication
planning and strengthen our service offering in the areas of
medical writing, KOL development, multimedia, and meetings
management. It will also extend Caudex’s capabilities in the US
market, via offices in New York and San Diego, adding to our
current office in Newtown, Pennsylvania. With expertise in
different markets and a critical mass of more than 100 employees
worldwide, we are confident that this merger will enhance the
services we already provide to our clients.
Following the merger, the medical education
and marketing company will trade under Caudex Medical Inc in the US
and Caudex Medical Ltd in the EU. Scientific Frontiers Inc, Caudex
Inc’s wholly owned CME subsidiary and separate legal entity, will
continue to oversee all CME work from its Newtown office. The CME
business from Fission will transition into Scientific Frontiers’
business to ensure full compliance with ACCME regulations. Given
industry’s increasing demand for CME activities, we anticipate that
our expanded capability in this area will be well received.
We hope that this exciting news will be of
interest to you and that it may present further opportunities for
us to work together in 2008 and beyond.
Gail Flockhart, CEO, Caudex Medical
Ltd
