Dark Horse Consulting Group (DHCG) has announced its acquisition of Bruder Consulting & Venture Group (BCVG), a strategic advisory firm specializing in biotechnology and biopharma. This acquisition, effective as of January 9, 2026, marks a significant step for DHCG as it integrates BCVG into its operations, establishing a new department called DHC Regenerative Medicine.

With its expertise in the discovery, development, clinical design, and regulatory approval of biologics and medical devices, BCVG brings a wealth of knowledge to DHCG. The firm has established a strong presence in the orthopedic, wound care, and plastic and reconstructive surgery markets. This addition aligns with DHCG’s ongoing commitment to enhancing patient outcomes through biotherapeutics.

The acquisition not only expands DHCG’s range of consulting services but also reinforces its position as a fully integrated global consulting practice. This move follows recent expansions with BioTechLogic and Converge Consulting, allowing DHCG to offer comprehensive services in regenerative medicine, tissue repair, and biomaterials.
