Hearing Children's Minister Roderic O'Gorman of Ireland

In today's rapidly changing world, the intersection of technology and healthcare is a critical area for investment. This is especially true when it comes to children's health, which plays a vital role in a nation's future economy and society.


One advocate of this idea is iHeal's CEO Ms. Romita Ghosh, who has been working tirelessly at the forefront of this field. According to Ms. Ghosh, investing in children's health is an investment in the future of our nation, and it is essential that we have a public infrastructure that supports this vision.


One policymaker who shares this view is Minister Roderic O'Gorman of Ireland. As Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration, and Youth, he is taking on portfolios that include children's health, recognizing its vital importance for the future of the country.



During a recent meeting, Ms. Ghosh and CTO Mr. Nilashis Roy had the privilege of discussing iHeal's MAAP AI for monitoring children's growth and nutrition with Minister O'Gorman. They also discussed the wider portfolio that the Minister handles and the importance of disability in its inclusive definition. It was clear that the Minister is passionate about equality and building a citizen-oriented society in Ireland.


By investing in children's health and well-being, we are investing in the future of our economy and society. As Ms. Ghosh has pointed out, this investment requires a public infrastructure that supports it. This is why it is so encouraging to see policymakers like Minister O'Gorman taking on portfolios that prioritize children's health and well-being.
