Day in the life

Karl Flannery, chairman of the Irish Software Association, talks to Vincent Ryan about his busy working day

I get up at 7.15am, having listened to the first 15 minutes of Morning Ireland, have my critical first coffee of the day, look through my calendar, grab my laptop and often head to my first meeting over breakfast.

As chair of the Irish Software Association (ISA), the representative body for Irish digital and software technology companies, and the chief executive of Storm Technology, I try to juggle my responsibilities.
