Galway start-up Health Care Informed recently finished implementing HCI's Quality Management Information System at Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital, in a contract worth €200k.

Making the announcement, the Minister  for Trade and Commerce Mr Billy Kelleher T D said: "Health Care Informed is a relatively young company and securing this contract with such an iconic Australian institution as the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne is a substantial endorsement of the quality and competitiveness of their offering."
