Three years after opening its virtual and physical doors, the RDI Hub near Killorglin, the country’s only public-private partnership hub supporting innovation for start-ups and SMEs, is to double its “desk” space.

The not-for-profit PPP with Fexco, Kerry County Council and Munster Technological University launched in February 2020. Six weeks later, the country was in pandemic mode.
