Oura buys Sparta Science, its third acquisition in 2 years
Smart ring maker Oura on Thursday announced that it has acquired Sparta Science, a Bay Area-based health tracking startup.
Smart ring maker Oura on Thursday announced that it has acquired Sparta Science, a Bay Area-based health tracking startup. TechCrunch spoke to Sparta back in 2018 at the offices of Playground Global, a key investor.
The deal marks Oura’s third acquisition in two years. The company purchased digital identity platform Proxy in May 2023. This September, it added Veri to the list, as it looks to grow out its metabolic health/diabetes monitoring capabilities.
Sparta’s primary offering is the health platform Trinsic, which tracks health vitals for enterprise clients. The technology will be integrated into the hardware firm’s B2B offering, Oura Business.
Business applications have played an increasingly important role in the world of health-based wearables in recent years. Oura Business lets employers purchase the ring in bulk or through gift cards, allowing employees to choose their specific size and color.
