Cor Group is a Finnish group of companies established in 1988.
We create new health and well-being services.
From the start, our aim has been to challenge and change current operating models in order to produce new and better services for patients, clients and health care professionals.
Our approach is to take companies under our wings and look after them. We provide our companies with the freedom and resources to improve. We encourage and help to innovate. We do not grow companies to sell them but to build sustainable business.
On the back of these principles, we have become a corporate family worth approximately EUR 471 million, and our growth continues.
We employ more than 4100 healthcare and well-being professionals around Finland. On top of that, we employ a large number of financial administration, technology and construction professionals.
We invest in the skills and job satisfaction of our staff because that is the only way to ensure that our customers receive the best possible service. We are constantly measuring our success and developing our operations. In our companies, both employee and customer satisfaction is at a high level.
