International SOS: Two decades of Healthcare assistance

In 1985, AEA International was formed by Pascal Rey-Herme and Arnaud Vaissié.

The company started out by primarily delivering consulting as well as medical care services to international corporations with presences in Asia. From a decent setup based in Indonesia and Singapore, it grew into a respectable corporation in the next 10 years, with offices sprang up in Japan, Australia, Hong Kong and mainland China.

In 1995, AEA International grew out of Asia and set up subsidiary offices in the United States and France respectively.

In 1998 AEA International completed the buy over of international SOS assistance, and it was named AEA International SOS. The resulting corporation, the biggest medical assistance company worldwide, kept that name up to 1999 when it was changed to International SOS officially.
