Three spin-out enterprises from a government-backed technology centre are to create 30 high-tech jobs over the next three years.

The Irish Centre for Manufacturing Research and the Innovation for Ireland’s Energy Efficiency Research Centre were established to bridge the gap between academia and the market.

Over the past 18 months, they have worked with universities and high-potential start-ups to make companies more productive and enable spin-outs.

Yesterday, they launched three technology start-ups – GreenMode Methods, ivVer and HVAC.
