SAI team cleans up after sale

Christopher Byrne and Richard O'Donnell are probably the State's latest and least-known dot

Christopher Byrne and Richard O'Donnell are probably the State's latest and least-known dot.com squillionaires after they sold their SAI company and its Redeo Technologies subsidiaries in the US last week to the Nasdaq-listed Clarus Corporation.

But there are another 13 people down in SAI head office in Limerick who are very happy indeed as they own 5 per cent of the company and are divvying up $3 million (€3.14 million) between them. That's an average of $231,000 each. Nice work!
