EQT Life Sciences' ImCheck Therapeutics to be acquired by Ipsen in a transaction valued at up to EUR 1 billion
EQT Life Sciences invested in the business in 2017, as part of a syndicate of investors, and has since provided comprehensive support, including at the board level.
: "We are immensely proud to have supported ImCheck's journey to this significant acquisition by Ipsen. The transaction highlights the strength of ImCheck's platform and exceptional leadership and team. It is also a testament to our ability to identify hidden gems and support transformative biotech companies."
"This transaction is an extraordinary milestone for ImCheck and puts the spotlight on groundbreaking science originating from French academia. EQT Life Sciences' support has extended far beyond financing – their strategic guidance and confidence in my leadership has been instrumental in our success. Together, we have advanced pioneering science from concept to late-stage clinical development, demonstrating what visionary investors and dedicated teams can accomplish together."
Together with the Amolyt Pharma exit to AstraZeneca in 2024, EQT Life Sciences has achieved successful exits from its two portfolio companies under the France 2030 investment program – a government initiative supporting the most promising French biotech innovations. This highlights EQT Life Sciences' expertise in identifying leading European biotech companies and turning them into global success stories.
The transaction is expected to close by the end of Q1 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals under French and U.S. regulations.
