Research Ireland has launched a new €34.3 million initiative to supercharge the commercialisation of cutting-edge healthtech research. The Accelerating Research to Commercialisation (ARC) Hub for HealthTech will provide funding, strategic guidance and expert support to help academic breakthroughs in medtech and connected health reach patients faster.

Led by University of Galway in partnership with ATU and RCSI, the hub is the third in the ARC series, joining therapeutics and ICT. Backed by the Irish Government and EU through the ERDF, it will focus on unlocking the innovation potential of the northern and western region — transforming early-stage research into scalable, real-world solutions.
