Two Clare businesses are set to benefit from an available funding pool of almost 19 million euro for what's been described as "groundbreaking projects." The Department of Enterprise has made the allocation under the Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund, which is specifically targeting three ICT and Health & Well-Being initiatives. Among the company's to benefit are the Shannon based Hooke Bio LTD and Provisio which are working on advanced cancer treatments and advanced driver safety assistance systems respectively. Shannon Fine Gael Councillor Tony Mulcahy says it's a huge vote of confidence.
