The province is investing $124,000 through the Business Growth Program to support the expansion of TxtSquad Enterprises Inc., a St. John\u2019s-based information and communication technology company specializing in healthcare communication solutions.<\/p>\n

The funding, provided by the Department of Jobs, Growth and Rural Development, will support TxtSquad\u2019s market expansion strategy, helping the company grow its presence in new national and international healthcare markets. The investment supports business growth activities and will lead to the creation of one new full-time position, increasing the company\u2019s workforce. This funding also leverages $124,000 of client investment.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2020, TxtSquad develops secure, cloud-based communication tools that allow healthcare providers to connect with patients through two-way text messaging and phone-based systems. Its platform is designed to improve patient engagement, reduce administrative burden, and streamline clinic operations.<\/p>\n

TxtSquad\u2019s technology is already in use across multiple jurisdictions in Canada and the United States. A successful pilot project with Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services resulted in significant reductions in patient no-shows and increased clinic efficiency.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis investment will help TxtSquad scale its operations, create new employment opportunities, and highlight how Newfoundland and Labrador\u2011based companies can build, grow, and succeed both here at home and internationally,\u201d said Lin Paddock, Minister of Jobs, Growth and Rural Development.<\/p>\n
