Roberto R. "Robert" Pupo- Miami

Boston and Miami attorneys work together to help Partners Healthcare System, Inc. increase its global reach.

Robert Pupo (Miami), Steve Wright (Boston) and a talented team of Holland & Knight lawyers recently helped Boston-based Partners Healthcare System, Inc. (Partners) take operational control of Harvard Medical International (HMI). Partners, a not-for-profit health care system, operates several major hospitals in the Boston area. As an internationally-renowned provider of consulting services, Harvard Medical International focuses on the provision of health care services in over 35 developing countries around the world, and is owned by Harvard Medical School.

Because HMI had been affiliated with Partners and had been operated as a Partners entity for many years, the decision to transfer the operation of HMI to Partners made good sense in many capacities. By taking on HMI, Partners hopes to increase its global reach. The combined entity will be known as Partners Harvard Medical International.

Mr. Pupo and Mr. Wright were assisted on the transaction by a multi-office team of partners and associates. Sherri DiMarco (Miami) provided corporate, health care and international experience.

Partner Dan Hampton (Boston) and associate Gillian Rattray (Boston) provided IP guidance. Mauricio Rivero (Miami) advised on tax issues.
