Victrix was founded in 2016 with the recruitment of a team of Europe´s leading experts in digital telehealthcare. The unique software platform it built meets new market demand and creates synergies between health and social care systems, promoting a new model based on extracting and analyzing data from a variety of health and social care sources to provide low-cost, highly effective, proactive interventions for chronic disease management, elder care and well-being.
This investment, part of Getronics' innovation incubation efforts, seeks to identify innovative companies whose solutions complement or enhance the Getronics portfolio, which is designed to provide an exceptional customer experience. Getronics has established a compelling track record in sourcing highly innovative IT solutions which bring important benefits to the community. In addition, Francisco Sà¡ez, Regional Managing Director of Getronics Iberia, is joining the Victrix board of directors.
