About International SOS

Protecting People, Saving Lives, Empowering Organizations

For over 40 years, International SOS has stood as the world’s leading health and security risk services company, dedicated to one unwavering mission: keeping people safe, wherever they work and travel.

Our Story

Pascal Rey-Herme, a doctor, and Arnaud Vaissié, a businessman, founded AEA International a company registered in Indonesia (also known as PT Asih Eka Abadi) in 1985 to provide medical assistance services to expatriate communities and international organisations in Southeast Asia. Over the following decade, the company grew from its base in Singapore and Indonesia into a pan-Asian corporation, with operations in Hong Kong, Australia, Japan and mainland China.

In 1998, AEA International acquired International SOS Assistance, a group of corporations founded in 1974 by Claude Giroux a Canadian entrepreneur, creating the largest medical assistance company in the world. Initially, it was known as AEA International SOS, and was renamed International SOS in 1999. The acquisition extended the company beyond Asia.

What began as a vision to provide unparalleled medical assistance to expatriates in Southeast Asia has evolved into a global powerhouse of expertise, innovation, and unwavering commitment to duty of care.
