‘Back to the Future’ As INVENT 2015 Is Launched
Can you imagine a world without the portable defibrillator, ejector seat, Massey Ferguson tractors or even a mug of warming hot chocolate?
These (very varied) inventions are used day and daily around the world without a second thought, but they all have one thing in common- they were invented by people from Northern Ireland. Now it’s your turn to bring your problem-solving ideas, concepts, or prototypes to the fore and take the first steps towards turning them into a business.
Widely recognised as one of the most lucrative door-opening opportunities for science and technology innovators in Northern Ireland, the 2015 search for the region’s inventions with the greatest commercial potential has just been launched.
INVENT 2015, run by NISP CONNECT at the Northern Ireland Science Park and sponsored by Bank of Ireland UK, is seeking applications for innovations across six categories:
- Creative Media and Consumer Internet
- Agri-Food
- Life and Health
- Engineering
- Electronics
- Enterprise Software
Entrants are competing for a share of the £33,000 prize fund and a money-can’t-buy opportunity to take part in the Northern Ireland “Tech Mission” to San Diego and San Francisco, to connect with some of the world’s top innovators in science & technology. Read more….
