New Innovation Voucher Call

For those of you not familiar with them, Innovation Vouchers are just genius for small companies with an R & D bent. Enterprise Ireland will give you a voucher worth €5000 to use with any third level college in the country to do some development work for you. All you have to do is to find the right person to work with (and pay VAT on the 5k). The next open call for the vouchers is in September but there is a limited call (of 75 vouchers) currently open in the FastTrack format. this requires you to have already agreed the project with the academic institution. Quite a number of Synergy Companies have benefitted from the voucher system - it really is incredibly easy to navigate. Visit http://www.innovationvouchers.ie/ for more info. Note that you have to be a registered company and you cannot have more than one voucher active at any time.
