US HEALTHCARE technology company RxSense has chosen Dublin as the location for its new European office.
The firm, which helps organisations to streamline pharmaceutical services and aims to make prescription medication more affordable, says the move will create 75 jobs in the capital.
Headquartered in Boston, RxSense says the new office is a strategic investment in Ireland's talent and innovation ecosystem and will support the continued growth and scale of the company's US operations.
"Ireland has a well-earned reputation for excellence in technology and many US companies have found tremendous success expanding here," said founder and CEO Rick Bates.
Over the next two years, RxSense plans to hire 75 full-time engineering and product roles in Dublin.
The team will play a central role in supporting the company's mission to make prescription medicines more affordable, a challenge in the US, where one-in-five adults have not filled their prescriptions due to cost.
RxSense is addressing this challenge by transforming pharmacy benefits through technology, building cloud-based platforms that deliver transparency and efficiency.
Choosing Dublin
The new Dublin centre will help develop the next generation of RxSense products that simplify healthcare, advance AI innovation and strengthen collaboration across product, engineering and design teams.
"We want to build a team that is deeply aligned with our culture and mission and works collaboratively in a high-performing environment," added Bates.
"Dublin offers that in abundance — it's talent-dense, innovation-driven and culturally in sync with our US roots."
Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, welcomed today's news.
"This investment is a strong vote of confidence in Ireland's world-class talent and thriving innovation ecosystem," he said.
"RxSense's presence here will not only strengthen our position as a global leader in healthcare technology but also contribute to the development of solutions that make healthcare more accessible.
"I wish the RxSense team the very best for the future and I look forward to seeing the positive impact this expansion will make."
