Howden has acquired Wide Care Services, an Italian Employee Benefits provider known for its proprietary health and welfare management platform.

Howden says the deal reinforces its commitment to investing in knowledge, people, and technology for its Italian and international clients.

Wide Care has offered administrative services for healthcare programmes and pension funds since 2006.

Howden’s Health and Benefits team now has over 500 practitioners across 16 European nations as a result of this purchase, positioning them for future expansion and expanding customer alternatives in the competitive Health and Benefits sector.

Wide Care Services founder and CEO Andrea Pozzi says: “At Wide Care we have dedicated years to developing an advanced platform for administrative management, delivery, and business intelligence of healthcare and pension benefits. Our mission is to integrate the public sector into the private system of healthcare provision, thereby improving waiting lists and facilitating a balanced utilisation of available resources. We share Howden’s entrepreneurial spirit and client-centric approach and look forward to leveraging their network to better meet market needs.”

Howden Italy CEO Federico Casini says: “Our aim is to broaden our impact in a sector of profound social importance. By optimising processes involved in booking, utilisation, and coverage of healthcare services and seamlessly integrating private and public supply chains, we aim to enhance overall access to quality care. Wide Care is the ideal partner for Howden as we cement our position as the natural home for entrepreneurial talent looking for access to the expertise and specialisms of an international network within their local market.”

Howden global head of employee benefits Glenn Thomas says: “The acquisition of Wide Care further strengthens our technological capabilities in Employee Benefits across Europe, and reflects our commitment to providing our clients with best-in-class solutions. I look forward to working with Andrea and the team in this exciting growth journey.”
