October 24, 2023 – CHICAGO – Madison Industries, one of the world’s largest privately held companies, announced today an agreement to acquire CAE Healthcare, a technology company that makes the world safer through cutting-edge medical simulation and training solutions.

“More than 2.6 million patients die every year from an adverse event while receiving hospital care.” said Larry Gies, Madison’s Founder and CEO. “CAE Healthcare’s simulation and training solutions have proven to lower that number to improve patient safety. It is a perfect fit for Madison’s mission to make the world safer, healthier and more productive.”

As a technology company, it digitalizes the physical world, deploying software-based simulation training and critical operations support solutions. CAE Healthcare empowers healthcare practitioners to perform at their best every day and when the stakes are the highest.

“We are excited to welcome the hundreds of global team members at CAE Healthcare to the Madison family,” said Kris Howard, Madison Safety and Flow President and CEO.  “Madison has many similarities to CAE Healthcare, where we are inspired by our collective mission and driven to build cultures with a fanatical focus on our customers, front line team, and innovation. The acquisition of the CAE Healthcare business will strengthen our portfolio as we leverage and continue to benefit from world-leading R&D talent in Quebec.”

“The global CAE Healthcare team could not be more excited to begin its new journey to take our business to the next level with the support of Madison Industries” said Jeff Evans, President of CAE Healthcare. “This dedicated focus will enable us to align with other portfolios and seize more opportunities related to the healthcare industry, as we continue to progress simulation and quality outcomes with the most complete set of clinical training tools available.”
