4 Irish Companies Secure DTIF Funding with the Help of Myriad Associates

With a combined grant value of €14.9m, this will provide a major boost to the MedTech and Cellular Therapy communities in Galway.

The first 27 projects from Ireland’s €500m Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF) were announced this week and will receive a combined €75m in support.

Marc Greatrex, Director of Grants at Myriad Associates commented the success of these applications was a testament to the strength of concepts with the passion, drive and commitment of the SMEs in Galway “We are absolutely thrilled and humbled to have 4 out of 4 applications accepted by the DTIF, we were always hopeful and glad we could help these consortia secure the funding. The technologies they're developing will have a major impact for patients and on the Irish National Strategic Outcomes in the coming years”
