Corin signs agreement to acquire OMNI Orthopaedics

Corin Group has signed a binding agreement to acquire OMNI Orthopaedics, known for its robotic assisted total knee replacement.

OMNI's OMNIBotics is an imageless total knee replacement solution which combines a robotic cutting guide with a robotic tool to measure ligament function. The system allows tailoring of the implant positioning to each individual patient, resulting in less patient pain and faster rehabilitation.

Corin’s CEO Stefano Alfonsi said: “We are delighted to welcome the innovative and talented OMNI team into the Corin global family. We look forward to working together as a combined organisation to further develop our presence in the world’s largest market – the United States. With the combination of Corin’s unique Optimised Positioning System (OPS) for the hip and the OMNIBotics platform for the knee, Corin is now uniquely positioned to address functional patient-specific joint replacement.”

Corin’s strategy is to try to revolutionise orthopaedics by gaining, understanding and sharing insight at every stage of the joint replacement experience and delivering clinically proven implants which are optimised by procedural technologies.

OMNI’s CEO Rick Epstein said: “It is the perfect time to be part of a larger organisation that shares our dedication to improving the lives of individual patients through technological innovation. We are thrilled to be joining Corin to maximise the potential of our robotic solutions, adding another unique technology to their ecosystem.”
