Berdac

berdac.com ↗ ·Barcelona ·Seed

Berdac (operating its product line as IMA / IMA Health) is a Barcelona-based healthtech startup that builds a "Medication as a Service" offering: a connected smart pill dispenser (IMA Dispenser) paired with a telehealth monitoring platform and mobile app that alerts patients and caregivers to missed or incorrect doses. Founded in 2019, it targets chronic/polypharmacy patients and elderly care. It previously ran a medication home-delivery service (IMA Contigo) that Spain's health authority (AEMPS) ordered shut down in 2022 for illegal drug delivery, though the core dispenser/adherence business continued.
