Publicly traded employer-focused fertility and family building company Progyny announced it had acquired Berlin-based fertility benefits platform Apryl, thereby expanding its global reach.
The New York-based company offers benefits packages focusing on family building, fertility and women’s reproductive health, including IVF, adoption, IUI and surrogacy.
Apryl, which also focuses on the employer benefits market, allows companies to customize their offerings to supply specific services to their employees. The platform offers guidance, fertility planning services, reproductive technology, and adoption and surrogacy services.
The company says that it also helps employees navigate local regulations and requirements within different countries, and that it has a database of clinics globally, along with their unique data points.
“This acquisition is exciting because it furthers our mission to increase access to fertility and family building care around the world. We are now able to work with global employers to provide family building benefits in over 100 countries, supporting patients in over 225 languages,” Pete Anevski, CEO of Progyny, told MobiHealthNews in an email.
