- Ypsomed Holding AG develops and manufactures customized injection and infusion systems for self-administration of liquid medications, serving as a key partner to pharmaceutical and biotech companies worldwide. Founded in 1984 and headquartered in Burgdorf, Switzerland, the company operates through a global network including production sites in Switzerland, Germany and China; it focuses on the Delivery Systems segment, providing precision-engineered drug delivery platforms such as disposable and reusable pen injectors including the YpsoMate platform, autoinjectors for high-viscosity biologics, on-body wearable devices, and related contract development and manufacturing services (CDMO). Ypsomed markets these solutions primarily through pharmaceutical partnerships targeting therapies for diabetes, autoimmune diseases, infertility, growth disorders and other chronic conditions, with geographic operations spanning Switzerland, Europe, North America and international markets.
In recent strategic shifts, Ypsomed sold its Diabetes Care business, including Ypsomed Diabetes Care AG and patch pump activities such as the mylife YpsoPump and mylife Loop, to TecMed AG for up to CHF 420 million in July 2025, enabling a pivot to a pure-play injection systems provider and funding expansions like new production halls in Solothurn and a potential U.S. manufacturing site by 2027. The company further divested its precision turned parts subsidiary Ypsotec AG to Callista Asset Management 32 GmbH on 31 October 2025 to sharpen focus on core medtech competencies and enhance financial flexibility for growth initiatives. These moves follow a 2024 strategic review and build on partnerships such as the October 2024 collaboration with BD to advance self-injection systems for high-viscosity biologics, alongside robust revenue growth in autoinjectors driven by GLP-1 therapies.
