Elliott Investment Management has built a significant stake in Align Technology, the company behind Invisalign, signaling a return of shareholder activism in the healthcare technology sector. This move targets “fallen growth champions” whose valuations have reset, seeking to unlock shareholder value through operational, financial, and governance changes. The market has reacted positively, seeing activist involvement as a catalyst for strategic changes and increased accountability in a company with a strong brand but suboptimal execution.
