The Irish trade group also met with representatives of the Irish Consulate and the Irish Pastoral Center, and they conducted key meetings with interested entrepreneurs and technologists from India and Germany.

Janette Gillen, business innovation manager of the Institute of Technology, Sligo, told the Irish Voice, “We had a very productive week in Silicon Valley. The trade mission provided a forum for CEIM participants to showcase their technologies and connect with important influencers.

“It also provided an opportunity to meet with U.S. enterprise acceleration programs. We are eager to continue developing relationships within the U.S. and encourage anyone who is interested in starting their own technology business in Ireland to get in touch with the CEIM program.”
