J&J Impact Ventures is excited to announce that Activated Insights has acquired CareAcademy, a company within our portfolio. Congratulations to Helen Adeosun, CEO & Founder, and the entire CareAcademy team on this milestone. As Activated Insights shared in their press release, “the acquisition unites the two organizations under a shared mission of advancing the care workforce.”
Nurses, home and hospice caregivers, and other types of health workers around the U.S. will now be able to access one of the most comprehensive workforce training platforms where they can develop new skills that equip them to deliver quality care. Together, the combined companies are evolving how the healthcare industry approaches professional development, putting more control directly in the hands of health workers.
By combining our innovation in training and compliance with Activated Insights’ analytics and benchmarking, we’re redefining what workforce enablement means in healthcare.
For Impact Ventures, an investment fund within the J&J Foundation, the acquisition represents our dual mission to enable sustainable social impact while also generating financial returns for the fund.
With this acquisition, CareAcademy has the potential to accelerate its growth. The additional resources with Activated Insights can support even more health workers and bring quality care within reach to more patients.
The acquisition also provides Impact Ventures with a financial return. But unlike traditional venture capital funds, Impact Ventures doesn’t distribute returns to other investors or partners. Instead, the capital goes back into J&J Foundation to be redeployed into new investments, continuing the positive cycle for more growth and impact.
We look forward to CareAcademy’s future success with Activated Insights, and we are actively working with our portfolio companies to achieve more successful exits.
