The companies also entertained JonMichael Bukosky (Managing Partner, Silicon Valley Gateway Partners), Norman Tajudin (Partner, Silicon Valley Gateway Partners) and Cian Hughes (Head of Operations, ITLG, IIC) who were on a whistle-stop tour of the island.

They were joined by the Tech Britain tour who took the opportunity to interview many of our local developers and also by Moira Kean, organiser of the Belfast Media Festival who was scoring some contacts and enjoying the local scene.

Our special thanks to the University of Ulster for helping make this happen, especially to Fiona McElroy and Eddie Friel, Greg Maguire and Conann Fitzpatrick for coming along and supporting the local industry.
