“We are delighted that the growth of HealthBeacon in Ireland will enable our expansion into North America, creating a hub that delivers key Irish technology to the healthcare market,” Jim Joyce, CEO of HealthBeacon, said.

The program connects real life data about a patient's behaviour, and documents it over time, which can give doctors a powerful insight into what treatment the person needs.

It has been hailed as one of the most medically-advanced interventions in modern times.

An Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, commented on the expansion, saying it “underlines Ireland’s position as a hub for high-end technology.”
