Health-tech start-up xWave Technologies was formed just as healthcare systems around the world received an urgent dose of digital transformation.
“The vision of xWave Technologies is to deliver smart healthcare platforms that empower patients and their clinicians to access the best healthcare solutions at the touch of a button,” said CEO Mitchell O’Gorman.
This Dublin-based health-tech start-up has already raised €600,000 in pre-seed funding, primarily from medical and business professionals. “This has allowed us to develop the platform, implement inside hospitals and set the stage for rapid growth,” O’Gorman added.

The Dublin company develops wearable tech to help monitor the health of older people at home.
Irish home-care technology company PacSana has raised €650,000 to help accelerate business growth in the US.
The start-up, which was founded two years ago in Dublin, focuses on supporting families and carers with technology to help prolong independent living for older or vulnerable people.
It has developed wearable technology that allows care providers to remotely monitor people in their own homes. The PacSana bracelet provides data on movement and activity, and the company has also developed a wearable thermometer and fingertip pulse oximeter to monitor other vitals.
