Tech Community Continues to Grow
The growth in the tech sector in Ireland continues apace. This shows how there are many glimmers of hope in the economy even though the media doesn't report it. There are numerous technology events, and days all over Ireland getting developers together. Ireland as a whole is showing that it can make an impact on Europe and the world.
It is pleasing to see Iphone app development days taking place in Belfast this weekend and to see events that have monies to invest in new tech ideas. So to all the naysayers I give you this. Perhaps if the focus was shifted towards these true entreprenuers then maybe people would feel that the economy could change for the better.
Pass the message around and be apart of the new economy of Ireland. Well done to you all!
