Guest speaker - Andrew Murphy

Andrew is well known across Ireland’s start-up and entrepreneurial community. A chemical engineer and former chemical plant manager with Henkel for the first part of his career, Andrew founded a healthcare technology start-up, Slainte Healthcare, in 2006. 

Over time this grew into two entities. One, Claimsure, was sold to Clanwilliam Health in 2015 after establishing itself as the central platform for revenue cycle management across the Irish healthcare system. The second, Vitro Software, is an electronic medical record platform that has scaled internationally.

Andrew was nominated for Entrepreneur of the Year in 2014, and since 2016 has assisted numerous companies to scale internationally.
