Shannon Development has created InnovationWorks, state-of-the-art business incubation centres, to stimulate entrepreneurial potential and to develop a sustainable enterprise culture in the Shannon Region. The name InnovationWorks reflects the dynamic sense of innovation and energy created within these centres.
InnovationWorks is helping entrepreneurs make the leap from business innovation to business success.
Each InnovationWorks facility is located within a Shannon Development Knowledge Network location:
InnovationWorks has been designed to support new technology and knowledge-based businesses which are dedicated to exploiting the potential of new, fast-growing markets.
