The national Innovation Showcase was an opportunity for companies in Ireland to learn more about world class collaborative research, development and innovation currently ongoing in Ireland. This was the first gathering, in one location, of all State-supported research centres and technology centres of scale.

Delivering excellent scientific research and game-changing technologies to companies in Ireland, representatives from each of the 38 centres were joined by officials from State agencies and Higher Education Institutes that can facilitate and fund innovation in companies in the Dublin Convention Centre.
INFANT was represented at the event by Dr Anthony Morrisey, Centre Manager and Ms Mairead Murray, Research Manager and caught the attention of Minister Bruton shortly after his address.
