Dedalus announced plans to create 100 new jobs in Ireland last December.

Global health-tech Dedalus is continuing to build in Ireland by establishing a new Irish headquarters in Dublin’s Northwood Business Park. The new HQ comes just months after the company announced a €10m investment commitment in the country and plans to hire 100 workers over four years.

Headquartered in Florence, Italy, Dedalus has partnered with the Irish health system for more than 30 years by providing software to manage electronic patient records, laboratory systems and diagnostics.

The company’s Irish arm has contracts with major Irish hospitals, including St James’s, the Mater, Beaumont, and the Midwest Hospital Group, as well as community services across the country. Its healthcare appointments platform Swiftqueue manages more than 4m medical appointments annually in Ireland.
