Clariane

In 2003, what began as a consolidation of four French medical-social facility networks under the name Korian, was the start of a journey to becoming a European leader in care. Shortly after its creation, the company went public with a listing on the Euronext Paris, setting the stage for its European expansion. Throughout the next decade, Korian grew by acquiring companies in Germany and Italy, establishing a significant international footprint. A key merger with Medica in 2014 further solidified its position. The company diversified its services, moving into domiciliary care, shared housing, and expanding its presence into Spain, the Netherlands, and the UK. A significant shift occurred in 2023 when Korian rebranded to Clariane. This change followed a period of intense public scrutiny of the private care home sector in France. The company transitioned to a purpose-led organization, aiming to rebuild trust and underscore a commitment to quality of care and transparency. The name Clariane was chosen to reflect this new chapter. Today, Clariane operates a broad network of long-term care nursing homes, specialized healthcare facilities, and alternative living solutions across Europe. Under the leadership of CEO Sophie Boissard, the company continues to navigate the challenges of the sector while focusing on its mission: "to take care of each person's humanity in times of vulnerability".
