movement acquires technology assets of Swiss digital health vendor dacadoo

Healthcare group movement acquired the technology platforms and intellectual property portfolio of Swiss digital health provider dacadoo integrating digital behaviour tracking software into its global wellness platform

Geneva, November 5, 2026 - Wellness conglomerate movement has announced the acquisition of technological and intellectual property assets from Swiss digital health firm dacadoo, as part of a broader global strategy. Over a span of 15 years, dacadoo has developed a recognized digital health engagement platform, protected by 51 patents and utilized by insurers, healthcare entities, and substantial employers across numerous countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, Germany, and several European nations.

The assets acquired encompass dacadoo's software and source code. For its clientele, this deal ensures uninterrupted access to the platform, now integrated with movement's proprietary technologies: behavior modification platforms grounded in extensive research with long-standing collaborations with health insurers, funds, and major organizations.

This acquisition aligns with movement's recent global expansion, according to Yogev Matok, CEO of movement's Wellbeing Division. "We are delighted to leverage dacadoo's established foundation and welcome its customer base. Our primary objective is to ensure their continuity while expanding our own expertise in constructing and managing fully branded digital behavior change platforms for large insurers, health funds, and organizations," he stated.

Movement's digital platforms cater to over 2.5 million users, focusing on fostering significant health improvements through sustained behavioral changes. A peer-reviewed study, conducted in conjunction with researchers from Harvard Medical School and Tel Aviv University, published in Communications Medicine (Nature Portfolio), revealed that users experienced an 18% reduction in type 2 diabetes cases, a 9% decrease in stroke instances, and a 5% drop in cardiovascular disease rates compared to similar individuals who did not utilize the platform.

This acquisition effectively merges dacadoo's technological prowess and global footprint with movement's products and capabilities, marking a substantial milestone in movement's international growth.
