Oura has announced that it has acquired Sparta Science, an enterprise health and wellness platform that specializes in military projects.
Oura’s announcement reveals that it’s looking to boost its Oura Business division and its platform Oura Teams to “Help us meet the specific needs of our partners.”
Sparta Science has its own data platform called Trinsic, and this seems to be the element Oura wants to scale up quickly.
We’ve heard quite a bit recently about Oura looking to B2B, and it’s announced lucrative deals with the Pentagon and Essence Healthcare.
The Pentagon deal, announced last month, is worth $96 million in hardware sales alone. The terms of the deal also see Oura deliver wellness coaching, and presumably, a robust platform would be key to delivering more of these huge projects.
The acquisition also adds Sparta’s technical team to Oura, advancing its ability to offer large-scale, data-driven health insights.
Oura’s consumer play has been a huge success, and last month it announced that it had sold 2.5 million smart rings. But the potential for Oura to translate this success into enterprise could be even more lucrative.
The deal marks Oura’s third acquisition in two years. Back in September it acquired Veri, and quickly added meal tracking into the new app changes launched with the Oura Ring 4 last month. Back in 2023, it bought the digital identity platform Proxy.
