Kainos, a Queens University Belfast spinout which recently held its IPO, is partnering tech giant Apple on bringing its new healthcare platform to the mobile market.
KainosEvolve will give healthcare providers and carers mobile access to patient information, and builds on electronic medical records which currently underpin a range of mobile apps which have already been developed for Apple’s mobile products.
The move comes shortly after Kainos held its IPO on the London Stock Exchange, raising £161m in the process.
Brendan Mooney, chief executive of Kainos, said: “We are delighted to announce this new platform which will help deliver better healthcare outcomes at a lower cost. This is an important step for Evolve towards realising our vision to make healthcare delivery easier through technology, and we are pleased to be working with Apple at this time. As we grow our traditional customer base in the NHS and expand into new geographical markets, we see the opportunity to enable fundamental change in the delivery of care through this next generation of mobility.”
