Learnosity: Seedcorn Competition Regional Finalist

Posted At : October 24, 2008 7:22 PM

We are delighted to announce that Learnosity has been selected as a regional finalist in the Seedcorn competition. Seedcorn, run by Intertrade Ireland, is the biggest business competition for early stage/high growth companies in both the North and South of Ireland. This prestigious competition, has a record prize fund of €280,000 and also offers the opportunity to develop and improve the business plan with a view to making the concept investor ready. It also provides exposure to VCs and other equity providers, while increasing the profile of the business.

I created the business plan as part of an Invest NI / Enterprise Ireland initiative, the Transform Programme. Such a comprehensive business plan would not have been possible if it not for the excellent support of Optimum Results, Diane Roberts, Mary Sadlier and Gary Bond, as well as contributions from Learnosity's business development manager Nigel Stally and CTO Mark Lynch.

Best of luck to the other finalists in the competition. We are honoured to be in great company, and I look forward to meeting you all at the finals in Belfast.
