BOSTON, UNITED STATES — Private equity firm BV Investment Partners (BV) has announced a growth-oriented investment in Hardenbergh Group in a move emphasizing its interest in the tech-enabled business domain.
Hardenbergh Group serves many of the largest and most respected healthcare organizations in the United States, offering professional non-clinical staffing, outsourced services, peer review, consulting, and physician leadership solutions.
