UL leads the way in campus innovation

THE University of Limerick won a major innovation award last night for its ability to convert classroom concepts into a potentially money spinning enterprise.

For the third year in a row, a company run by UL researchers was named winner of the Shannon Development Campus Innovation Award.

The award is confined to the four third-level colleges in the Shannon Region: UL, Limerick Institute of Technology, Tipperary Institute and the Institute of Technology Tralee.
