SportsTech Ireland is a not-for-profit initiative committed to the development of the sports technology industry in Ireland. SportsTech Ireland launched in 2017 with the aim of championing a new industry for Ireland in the field of sports innovation and technology. Gráinne Barry, Martina Skelly, and Emily Ross launched SportsTech Ireland as a way to give back to their locality, the home that they loved in Ireland’s midwest. With Limerick being home to Munster Rugby and Thomond Park, it was already positioned as a great starting point for an initiative like SportsTech Ireland. Our purpose is to represent and drive growth in the industry in Ireland through deep domain expertise, a national and international network and a focus on innovation at the intersection of technology and sport.Â
