Beamtree
Beamtree (formerly Pacific Knowledge Systems) is a health data analytics company based in Sydney, Australia.[1] Tim Kelsey was appointed chief executive in December 2020.[2] Mark Britnell was appointed chair of the Beamtree Global Impact Committee in August 2021.[3]
The company recorded a 20% year-on-year growth, and 15% increase in annual recurring revenue in August 2021.[4]
An international division was launched in the UK in 2021. The company acquired Ainsoff Pty Ltd, a clinician-led healthcare analytics company and Potential(x), an Australian firm that provides comparative analytics in 2021.[5] Ainsoff's founders Dr Levi Bassin and Dr David Bell will join the company. It has a partnership with the University of Sydney.[6] The company funds an Associate Professor of Clinical Informatics and Data Science at the University of Sydney.[7]
It formed a partnership with the Central Adelaide Local Health Network to implement the RISQ data quality product across the network of four hospitals. Likewise, it will also support clinical decision-making for pathology services and integrate the Ainsoff Index, which is used to detect deterioration in its early stage, into the electronic medical record.[8]
In March 2022, it set up contracts with four NHS hospital trusts in England to use its RippleDown decision support technology. The combined annual revenue is about £300,000.[9] It also has a five-year contract with Ampath for the RippleDown software which automates up to 90% of clinical interpretations.[10]
In October 2022, it entered into a partnership to roll out its AI data and decision support products in 450 public and private hospitals in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.[11]
