Ryan launches digital research report

Minister for Communications Eamon Ryan has launched the first annual report of National Digital Research Centre (NDRC).

NDRC is the sole collaboration centre in the country where all research activities have a clear commercial objective, with industry expertise directly engaged with each project.

Launching the 2009 Annual Report, Mr Ryan said: 'Ireland's digital sector is growing from strength to strength. Over the next ten years, the majority of our exports will be digitally-traded - as a small, open economy, this will be crucial in guaranteeing future prosperity.

'The National Digital Research Centre promotes innovation and creation in our digital sector and Government will continue in its support for this vital service.'
