BGO Software is fully transforming into the development of digital healthcare solutions and is investing in an office in Switzerland

BGO Software, a leading Bulgarian technology company, announced a shift in its strategy and full focus on developing IT solutions for the healthcare sector. With this move, the company becomes the first technology firm in Bulgaria and the region to exclusively develop IT solutions in the digital health space for clients worldwide. Additionally, the company is expanding its operations by opening a representative office in Basel, Switzerland, within the Novartis campus – a global pharmaceutical giant and leader in clinical trials. The company’s new business direction is a logical next step in its strategic development and aims to highlight the activities and investments that Bulgarian IT companies are making in healthcare, positioning Bulgaria as a European hub for digital healthcare.

“Out of all the industries we have served in recent years, we identified digital healthcare as the area where our technological expertise could have the greatest impact. That’s why, in April 2020, we began the process of fully transforming our focus towards digital healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and clinical research. BGO Software’s goal is to contribute maximally to the global transition from analog to fully digital healthcare because technology can save and improve human lives today”

Founder and director of BGO Software

Thanks to its expertise and acquired high-level competencies in the sector over the past years, BGO Software has become synonymous with technological innovation both in Bulgaria and abroad. The company’s clients include some of the largest pharmaceutical companies in Switzerland, as well as government institutions in the UK. Through its technological solutions, the Bulgarian company helps healthcare providers transform their operations, accelerate the adoption of innovations, improve financial outcomes, and deliver better services to their patients and partners.

“To deliver the highest value and quality for our clients, we need a clear and precise focus. Our experience as an outsourcing organization provided us with the necessary expertise to develop projects to the highest standards. Our transformation into a company exclusively developing solutions for digital healthcare is a logical step for us to make the most for our clients and promote Bulgaria as an IT destination with high added value”

On its newly updated website, the company presented an impressive portfolio of solutions across three main market verticals – the pharmaceutical industry, technology companies developing products in the healthcare sector, and organizations conducting clinical trials. These include mobile apps for patient engagement and patient programs, mobile apps for digital therapeutics and disease monitoring, electronic patient registries, clinical trial management platforms, solutions for collecting and processing electronic data, and many more.

Innovation development in the healthcare sector has become a priority for all of Europe, especially in the past year and a half during the pandemic. For this reason, the development of sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems that improve the environment and encourage faster and more effective development of health technologies and innovations has emerged as one of the most successful and efficient tools for technology companies.

In 2020, BGO Software became part of such a digital healthcare ecosystem through its membership in the Digital Health and Innovation Cluster Bulgaria. The cluster works on building a sustainable entrepreneurial IT ecosystem in healthcare by promoting knowledge and innovation exchange between stakeholders in the sector.
