Major Funding for Two Galway Gaeltacht Companies for Health Innovations

Údarás na Gaeltachta is delighted to congratulate two companies that received major funding under Call 7 of the Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF). They will be working on new projects in the health sector.

HealAsystant – AI System to Assist with Compression Therapy

FeelTect Limited and Professional Granite Consulting Limited, located in Galway and Cork, received €6.3 million. They are creating an AI system that will provide support to patients using compression therapy. This will greatly enhance patients’ quality of life and medical care.

SmartMobility CNM – Monitoring System for Patient Nutrition

Invermed Ltd, together with their partners Rockfield Medical Devices and the Irish Manufacturing Research Centre (IMR), received €3.3 million. The SmartMobility CNM introduces continuous, real-time nutritional monitoring compatible with all enteral feeding systems—enabling truly data-driven nutritional care.

These are part of 27 projects that received total funding of €159 million under Call 7 of the DTIF. The €9.6 million for these projects demonstrates that companies in the Gaeltacht can be at the forefront in health technology matters.

Miriam Ní Néill from the Enterprise and Employment Division of Údarás na Gaeltachta said:

“We are very proud of this achievement. It shows that our client companies are able to compete internationally and have a positive impact on society.
