Carenet Health Acquires Invene, Adding Healthcare AI and Data Consulting to Its Engagement Suite

SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carenet Health (Carenet), the engagement, navigation, and clinical execution partner to America’s leading payers, providers, and health technology and services companies, today announced its acquisition of Invene, a healthcare-only AI and data engineering consulting firm trusted by 20 of the Fortune 100.

Healthcare organizations need technology, AI, and data investments to deliver measurable results. Invene helps them decide what is worth developing, strengthen the data foundations beneath it, and architect technology that works in real-world workflows. Its team has launched 400+ products touching more than 1 billion users worldwide, won more than 30 innovation awards, and made the Inc. 5000 two years running.

“Healthcare companies want to put AI to work responsibly and profitably, with a partner who can orchestrate, build, and run it,” said Christopher Rogers, President of Carenet Health. “Invene has done exactly that with many formidable healthcare organizations. Paired with our Intelligent Engagement™ technology, clinical foundations, global operations, and decades of healthcare insights, clients get one powerhouse partner that’s accountable from strategy to implementation and optimization at scale.”

“We built Invene to solve the hardest technology problems in healthcare. Carenet deepens our ability to do this end-to-end, with more organizations,” said James Griffin, Invene founder, and now President of Invene, a Carenet Health company. “Our clients gain a proven, full-service healthcare engagement partner, and Carenet’s clients benefit from our deep expertise in data and AI.”

Since its founding in 2018, Invene’s remote, U.S.-based workforce has delivered cutting-edge solutions to payers, providers, value-based care organizations, EHRs, and health-tech companies. It helps organizations reduce manual effort with expertise in AI innovation strategy, agentic AI and automation, and healthcare data engineering and interoperability.

Griffin and the experienced Invene team, along with its nationwide network of independent technical consultants and engineers, join Carenet immediately. As a Carenet Health company, Invene will continue to serve healthcare organizations beyond Carenet’s client base and vice versa.

“We’re building a different kind of healthcare engagement company — one that combines the power of advanced tech and AI with consumer intelligence, clinical expertise, and operational scale to deliver what matters most: better outcomes,” said John Erwin, CEO of Carenet Health. “We’re deliberate about what we build, what we acquire, and who we partner with. Every investment has a purpose, and that purpose is to make our clients more successful and healthcare more accessible, affordable, and effective for the people they serve.”

Invene is Carenet’s 12th acquisition, following Orbita earlier this week.
