**Our story**:
Evidensia Belgium is part of IVC Evidensia Group, the European market leader in veterinary care with over 2500 clinics across 20 countries. The Group is funded by EQT private equity, allowing it to pursue its ambitious buy and build strategy.

The European group was started in 2012 in connection with the merger of some of the largest and most reputable veterinary clinics and hospitals in Sweden. Since then, the company has grown rapidly organically and through a large number of add-on acquisitions. The group has a reputation for promoting clinical freedom and innovation among its practices.

Evidensia is the market leader in Belgium, having acquired over 50 clinics in the six years since foundation. Our aim is to build the strongest and most respected veterinary group, and thus we expect to further continue to acquire a significant number of clinics in the upcoming years.
