It@Cork Podcast Series

I like us to get involved with interesting projects, so when Tom Raftery asked us if we’d be interested in sponsoring the It@Cork conference this year I was interested. Rather than merely shoving our name on the sponsors’ list we’re actually sponsoring the pre-conference podcast series, where Tom will be speaking to some of the [...]
