The Legato healthcare solutions company which employs 150 people at its Limerick software development base has formally rebranded as Carelon Global Solutions this afternoon, and says it plans to increase its workforce by another 50 in the next five months.

In a message at a rebranding event taking place at Thomond Park stadium in Limerick this afternoon, country head for the organisation John Patrick Shaw said the health tech sector remains healthy, despite the downturn in other tech areas, and remains very much in growth mode.

"Ireland is at the forefront of digital transformation and innovation thanks to a strong STEM focus across recent years, including on women in STEM, and substantial investment in innovation. As a nation we also have a strong recent history in healthcare and health-tech and that means we are in really good shape," he said.

"On top of that, there is always a relentless push for gains in health, whether that's healthcare products or healthcare services. If you impact in this space, you have an ability to improve humanity. There's always market for that.""Our ability to hire people from so many different nationalities has been a key driver of our success.
