FUSION provides support to fund a high calibre science, engineering or technology graduate to partner you with a third level institution.

ABOUT FUSION

Product development and innovation is at the heart of growth but often needs costly technology support.  FUSION can provide that support by helping to fund a high calibre science, engineering or technology graduate and partnering you with a third level institution with specific expertise.

The graduate is employed by you and is based in your company throughout the project (12 – 18 months) with mentoring from the academic partner and InterTradeIreland FUSION consultant.

CREVINN TEORANTA

The InterTradeIreland FUSION project allowed us to hire a resource, Cormac TCD to work full time on our innovation project. Any lack of experience Cormac had in the particular research area we were able to tap into the experience in the high-performance computing group in Queen’s University in Belfast.
