NOTE
The Industry-led International SmartOcean Graduate Enterprise Initiative (ISGEI) established in 2011, is designed to strengthen and build on Ireland’s emerging specialist capacity in the area of Marine Information and Communications Technology (Marine ICT). This initiative will act as a key vehicle for the implementation of Ireland’s National Strategy for Marine Research ‘Sea Change’, A Marine Knowledge, Research and Innovation Strategy for Ireland 2007-2013’.
