Corilus and Sofia Développement Join Forces ...Sofia Développement invests in ComptasantéIK Partners invests in Sofia Développement
Leading software and service solution for independent healthcare professionals
Sofia Développement ("the Company") is a vertical software and service solution dedicated to independent healthcare professionals resulting from the combination of three complementary solutions: merger in 2019 of IDEA (Topaze and Télévitale) and SNAL (Albus), two teletransmission software and invoicing solutions, followed by the acquisition in 2022 of Comptasanté, one of the leading online accounting player exclusively dedicated to medical and paramedical professionals.
At the time of exit, the Company supported over 31,000 healthcare professionals, equipping them with its teletransmission software, patient and practice management tools as well as invoicing and accounting tech-enabled services.
Sofia Développement also had five operating offices across France and employed 300 people led by Chief Executive Officer, Geoffroy Lapointe, and Jean-Marc Salvan, Chairman of the Strategic Committee and founder of IDEA.
The investment was acquired from the founders in March 2022, joining existing shareholders Extens, Capital Croissance and Bpifrance. In January 2026, IK Partners completed the sale of its stake to Corilus.
Our Value Creation Strategy
During our ownership, we worked alongside management to:
- Maintain leadership position in core teletransmission software offering;
- Pursue development of tech-enabled invoicing and accounting services; and
- Expand Sofia’s client base and its offering to become a fully integrated digital practice management solution.
Quote from Sofia Développement
"We are very pleased to welcome the Comptasanté team to Sofia and are excited by the upcoming development and synergy opportunities for the Group. Thanks to this acquisition, we are strengthening our unique positioning in the market allowing us to offer our community of healthcare professional clients a complete, differentiated and innovative service offering. This operation confirms our willingness to pursue an ambitious build-up plan."
Geoffroy Lapointe, Chief Executive Officer
