Mediphone Inc., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, is set to acquire the WELSA cloud health management system business from Infocom Co., Ltd. as of July 1, 2025. This strategic move aims to boost support for health management in medical institutions and corporate environments and help more clients lead healthier lives.

Background of the Business Transfer

The evolution and enhancement of systems pertinent to sustainable health management have led both companies to agree on the transfer. This change is designed to ensure that services remain beneficial to more organizations.

Yoichiro Hamazaki, Executive Officer and Deputy Head of Healthcare Services at Infocom, stated that amidst a review of their medium-term plan, Infocom decided to exit the WELSA business.

He expressed hope that the acquisition by Mediphone would reassure their clients.

Mediphone’s CEO, Mayumi Sawada, expressed gratitude for this opportunity to take over WELSA. She affirmed that her team would strive to ensure a smooth transition for existing corporate clients, incorporating their feedback into product improvements to meet the growing needs of a diverse society.

Key Details of the Business Transfer

The transfer will take effect on July 1, 2025, with no major changes anticipated in the quality of services offered to existing WELSA users. Mediphone is committed to providing high-quality products and maintaining strong customer relations.
