Speaking from Tyndall National Institute, Minister Heather Humphreys said 鈥�The Disruptive Technologies Innovation funding, part of the Project Ireland 2040 Fund, is a key part of the Government鈥檚 Future Jobs initiative to secure Ireland鈥檚 economic success. I congratulate Tyndall National Institute and its industry and other partners on their success in the recent DTIF Call. We recognise the valuable role that Tyndall is playing in developing game-changing technology that improves our lives and also ensures that Ireland is highly competitive and securing jobs for the future.鈥�
