Biotechnology Firm Visiblegy Plans to Quadruple Workforce in Omagh
Visiblegy Limited, a start-up tech company focused on the global pharmaceutical industry, is recruiting 11 new staff as part of investment plans that will more than quadruple its workforce. Visiblegy is a technology company focused on providing solutions to the healthcare industry to deliver insights that will lead to patients getting better treatment outcomes across diverse health profiles.
Welcoming the investment, Ethna McNamee, Western Regional Manager, Invest Northern Ireland, said: “Visiblegy is an impressive young business with high growth potential. The significant export contract secured in its first year of trading is a valuable endorsement of the importance of its technology to the global pharmaceutical industry.
“The 11 new jobs to be recruited during 2019 is very positive news for the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council area. We are committed to helping this business achieve its targets and maximise the global opportunities which exist for its innovative technology.”
The new jobs cover a range of positions including software programming, marketing, sales and managerial roles. Two of the jobs are already in place.
The business’ software platform XLens delivers insights which support the effective launch of new drugs into the marketplace. Visiblegy is already working with one of the top 20 global pharma companies, demonstrating the value of this technology to its target market.
Mark Bradley, Director at Visiblegy, said: “Our software platform ‘XLens’ is aimed at eliminating the billions of dollars of revenue leakage that the pharma industry experiences when new products are launched onto the marketplace. We have received encouraging feedback from customers to date and are aiming to generate further sales over the coming months. The support offered by Invest NI towards our market development and recruitment investments is enabling us to build a market presence and establish a well-resourced team to help deliver our growth targets.”
