Some 15 leading technology companies have been shortlisted for the annual Irish Times Innovation Awards. Now in its 11th year, the awards are a key part of The Irish Times innovation coverage, which seeks to profile and promote successful business innovation across Ireland’s start-ups, SMEs and larger businesses. Sponsors of the awards include the UCD Michael Smurfit School, Science Foundation Ireland, Enterprise Ireland, and Skillnet Ireland. The winners will be chosen by an independent panel of judges chaired by entrepreneur and Irish Times columnist Chris Horn. Galway-based medtech company Atlantic Therapeutics won The Irish Times Innovation of the Year award in 2019 for developing a non-invasive, long-lasting solution to bladder weakness and other disorders associated with pelvic floor muscle problems.
