TARGETED PROJECTS
The Centre’s vision will be realised through a mix ofi. LONG-TERM RESEARCH
ii. TARGETED PROJECTS which are commissioned by, designed with &executed for our industry partners.
A key feature of the centre will be the rapid prototyping of ideas and the
implementation of those ideas in the “real world”.
THE INDUSTRY TEAM38
“IBM is seriously looking for the creation of one or more spinout companies in the areas as noted by the objectives above ... Investments in spinouts could be in the range of €1-10M” ...
‘’The goal of this collaboration is to maintain active pipeline of academic research which furthers Intel’s business goals in IOT”…
“We see that it will lead to employment opportunities in Socowave within 2 years. ...could be responsible for the overall employment increase of 50%” ...
“The roll out of the ESB fibre network has the potential to bring a level of connectivity to Ireland that has not been experienced to date. Working on this project will allow us to really focus on such challenges as rural broadband”…
