US firm Inverness Graham Investments, a private investment firm, has acquired Catheter & Medical Design (CMD).

This is the third Inverness platform investment in the medical device outsourcing market, following Inverness’ successful ownership of ExtruMed and AdvancedCath Technologies.

“We are excited to invest in another medical device outsourced manufacturing business and believe CMD is a highly attractive platform, offering a compelling value proposition to its global, blue-chip customer base,” stated Aliya Khaydarova, Managing Principal of Inverness Graham. “As medical device companies continue to outsource their complex design and manufacturing needs, we expect CMD to become an increasingly important strategic partner.”

Lucian Bejinariu, President/CEO of CMD, stated “I am very excited about partnering with Inverness Graham to continue the tremendous growth CMD has experienced and to leverage the additional financial and operating resources Inverness has to offer. We look forward to the continued expansion of our platform and the ability to offer more complex solutions and capabilities to our customers.”
