PVP Ventures Limited (PVP) has announced the acquisition of a 52% stake in Biohygea Global Private Limited, known under the brand name Medilabs, marking a significant milestone in its ambition to build a comprehensive global healthcare services platform. This move aligns with PVP’s previously outlined strategy focusing on illness, wellness, and care, with a special emphasis on underserved markets.

We welcome Medilab into the PVP fold and look forward to making them a differentiated and scaled diagnostics player in the near future.”
