Appliance of science in everyday gadgets to be showcased in Cork

The wonder of science and how it is being applied to everyday gadgets in homes, hospitals and other settings are being displayed this week.

A three-day showcase event in Ballincollig, Co Cork, is not just highlighting the big industry names with which Tyndall is already partnering on major projects, corporations like Henkel Corporation, Intel, Analog and Seagate, not all of which are big employers here.

The aim is also to put some of those companies in the same room as Ireland’s employment agencies and others to encourage investment in more than just research in Ireland.
