Withings means business.

Buyback. Co-founded by engineer Éric Carreel and reacquired from telecom company Nokia in ’18, the Carreel Family upped its stake to 90%, buying out investors Bpifrance, Eurazeo, Gilde Healthcare, and Oddo BHF.

Connecting dots. Withings’ connected hardware portfolio includes smartwatches, bathroom scales, and blood pressure monitors — plus at-home stethoscopes and urinalysis pods. Counting 12M+ global users, it expects 20%+ growth in 2026 while remaining profitable.

Making rounds. Forming a medical division this summer, Withings joined ACCESS to prove metabolic health outcomes. Supporting GLP-1 compliance, its newly launched third-gen Body Pro scale features DEXA-grade body comp, progress forecasts, and hypertension alerts.

Assembling a preventative health platform, it’s securing regulatory approvals like Happy Health while competing with in-app telehealth from WHOOP and Oura.

Punchline: Aiming to be the patient-provider bridge for healthcare and longevity, Withings will align innovation and integration with its family’s founding vision.
