Esta adquisición constituye la primera inversión de Samfara y cuenta con el respaldo de un consorcio de inversores institucionales y family offices de Europa y Norteamérica.

LONDRES, 2 de octubre de 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Samfara, una firma europea de inversión en ciencias de la vida, anunció hoy que ha completado la adquisición de Chr. Olesen Synthesis de Chr. Olesen y a fondos gestionados por Signet Healthcare Partners. El consejero delegado, Thomas Moestrup, participa en la inversión junto a Samfara. No se divulgaron los términos financieros de la operación.

Con sede cerca de Copenhague, Chr. Olesen Synthesis desarrolla y fabrica principios activos farmacéuticos (API) e intermedios avanzados, especializándose en sustancias controladas, en particular las utilizadas para tratar el trastorno por consumo de opioides (buprenorfina) y el TDAH (lisdexanfetamina). Su planta, certificada según las normas cGMP, opera a nivel comercial desde 2015 y abastece a empresas farmacéuticas de Europa, Norteamérica y Oriente Medio. La compañía combina experiencia técnica y una gran flexibilidad para atender a sus clientes del sector farmacéutico en los distintos mercados en los que opera.

Con el respaldo de Samfara, Chr. Olesen Synthesis seguirá desarrollando sus capacidades, consolidando su cartera de clientes y productos, y expandiéndose hacia nuevos mercados. Jean-François Hilaire, exconsejero delegado de Unither y exvicepresidente ejecutivo de Recipharm, quien asesoró a Samfara en la operación de adquisición, se incorporará al consejo de administración de Chr. Olesen Synthesis en calidad de presidente.

Helena Malchione y James Cocker, socios de Samfara, declararon:

La compañía goza de una posición sólida y una excelente reputación en un segmento exigente del mercado farmacéutico; esperamos colaborar con Thomas y su equipo a medida que crecen con sus clientes actuales y se expanden hacia nuevos mercados, tanto de forma orgánica como mediante adquisiciones".

Thomas Moestrup, consejero delegado de Chr. Olesen Synthesis, dijo: 

"Este es un paso adelante muy prometedor para Chr. Olesen Synthesis. Con Samfara como nuevo propietario, contamos con un socio que comparte nuestras ambiciones y respaldará el desarrollo continuo del negocio. Esperamos seguir fortaleciendo nuestras relaciones con los clientes, expandir la actividad y aprovechar las oportunidades que tenemos por delante".

Mads C. Olesen, consejero delegado y propietario de Chr. Olesen, comentó: 

"En 2011, Chr. Olesen adquirió Chr. Olesen Synthesis y, junto con Signet Healthcare, la ha convertido en un actor relevante en el ámbito de los principios activos farmacéuticos (API) de sustancias controladas. Es el momento adecuado para que nuevos propietarios impulsen el negocio, y estamos convencidos de haber confiado la empresa al propietario idóneo. Deseamos lo mejor a Samfara y al equipo directivo de la compañía".
