Northern Ireland Chamber of Commerce and Industry (NI Chamber), in partnership with Danske Bank, held the latest Danske Bank Export First event at HeartSine Technologies in Belfast earlier today (Thursday 23 March 2017) at which more than 60 local business representatives heard  the company’s success story .

HeartSine has grown from being a university spin out to become a leading exporter of defibrillators which are used in the treatment of someone who is in cardiac arrest.  The firm, which has developed a global distribution network servicing more than 70 countries, was acquired by one of the world’s leading medical technology companies Stryker Medical last year.
