Ireland’s Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF) is built on collaboration. Successful projects combine the expertise, capabilities, and perspectives of complementary partners, bringing together organisations from across industry and research and knowledge providers to develop innovative solutions with real-world impact.
This collaboration hub has been designed to help you do more than secure your place at one of our national roadshow events. It will help you create a collaboration profile, showcase your organisation’s strengths, and identify potential partners who could strengthen your future DTIF consortium.
