Shortlisted companies in five categories including sustainability and new frontiers via IrishTimesBiz

Geoff Allen, founder of Mersus Technologies/Avatar Academy

“Avatar Academy not only mirrors real-world working environments but digitises all of the knowledge involved in today’s complex biopharma and medtech manufacturing processes. It also captures any metrics involved detailing how each candidate performs a task,” explains founder Geoff Allen.

“Reducing emissions is particularly challenging for agriculture because unlike other sectors there is no low or no-emitting replacement technologies available. As things stand there is no effective or cost-effective solution to the problem and this is what we set out to address,” says company co-founder Dr Ruairí Friel.

“Together, GHG emissions from stored slurry and enteric fermentation account for approximately 68 per cent of all Irish agricultural emissions,” Friel says. “TMI is an extremely effective means of mitigating methane release and in trials to date we have demonstrated substantial reductions in methane emissions. If TMI was used extensively in Ireland it would bring down national emissions by more than 20 per cent while still allowing the agricultural sector to thrive and prosper.

Typical Vivid Edge customers include healthcare facilities, data-processing companies and large pharma and telecoms organisations in Ireland, the UK, Europe and the Middle East.
