Toulouse, France – February 16, 2026 – 8:00 a.m. Axiodis CRO, a subsidiary of the Oxurion Group (Euronext Brussels: OXUR) specializing in clinical data management, announces a major milestone in the implementation of its development strategy: the recruitment of its first dedicated sales representative and a marketing manager, in addition to the ongoing complete overhaul of its website and the rollout of an enhanced digital marketing strategy.

These initiatives are intended to increase Axiodis CRO's visibility in the European biometrics and clinical data services market, while consolidating its positioning with academic and industry sponsors. The objective is to double revenue within three years, from €928K in 2025 to €2 million in 2028, supported by a proactive commercial dynamic and an enhanced service offering.

An offensive commercial strategy to capture growth

Axiodis CRO is undertaking an ambitious commercial transformation to support its growth. A dedicated sales team is currently being assembled to target high value-added segments, including pharmaceutical and biotech sponsors seeking reliable biometrics solutions, academic institutions for long-term partnerships, and CRO partners for integrated service offerings. At the same time, the company is strengthening its marketing approach under the leadership of a newly appointed marketing manager, with the objective of increasing brand visibility and awareness while optimizing the customer experience. Finally, Axiodis CRO is reviewing its service offering and pricing policy in order to provide modular solutions integrating biometrics, Exagis eCRF, and AI-driven services, with a view to creating value for each client and accelerating the sales cycle.

Strategic synergies already identified

In parallel, Axiodis CRO confirms that it has identified synergies with the target company currently under discussion with Oxurion. This company, which specializes in clinical operations and regulatory affairs, brings complementary expertise to Axiodis CRO, an expert in biometrics and data management. Together, the companies will be able to offer integrated solutions covering the entire clinical development cycle: from protocol design to data collection and analysis, through to the preparation of regulatory dossiers and market access. This combination will enable sponsors to benefit from a unified approach combining statistical rigor, regulatory compliance, and speed of execution. The financial impact of this convergence has not yet been modeled at this stage, but it represents a major strategic lever to accelerate growth and strengthen the Group's position in the European market.

AI as a catalyst for operational efficiency

Following the previous press release, Axiodis CRO continues to integrate AI components at the core of its solutions. The company is exploring advanced use cases in NLP (Natural Language Processing) to industrialize medical writing and optimize pharmacovigilance processes. Two pilot projects are currently underway, including one with HTC Santé, aimed at transforming nutritional prescribing through artificial intelligence. This project leverages advanced NLP and generative AI technologies to analyze medical, nutritional, and behavioral data and generate reliable and engaging personalized recommendations. Beyond its immediate application in nutrition, the success of this pilot will enable the technology to be consolidated internally for high value-added applications, notably the automation of reporting and the drafting of critical sections of clinical trial documentation. Additional information will be communicated should the results prove conclusive. This initiative forms part of Axiodis CRO's broader strategy to place artificial intelligence at the core of its processes in order to enhance productivity and regulatory compliance.
