Small business column: Mike Shelly on genetic testing in horse racing

Kehlan Kirwan talks with Mike Shelly, chief executive of Plusvital, an Irish equine science company that focuses on horse supplements and genomics.

Explain to us what you do?

I suppose Plusvital would consider ourselves an Irish equine science company. First and foremost we’re Irish and very proud of that. When we go around the world it’s a great place to be. As an Irish company we have great standing in the racing regions around the world because we focus on horses.
