“I am confident we will be able to provide Labcorp’s medical device clients with a smooth transition, combined with the same high level of expertise and customer service current Namsa clients have come to expect from us.”

We are pleased Namsa will continue providing leading expertise to clients in this space and are committed to a seamless transition.”

This marks Namsa’s tenth acquisition since joining ARCHIMED in 2020.

In January 2025, Namsa acquired the US-based medical device testing operations of WuXi AppTec to strengthen its medtech clinical research testing capabilities.
