The Final Imagine Cup Results!

Wow - Ireland really cleaned house at the Imagine Cup finals!  Team Red Dawn (Mohammed Al-Tahs and Marouf Azad) from the Dublin Institue of Technology finished SECOND in the world for the web development competition!  This was out of 155 teams, which is absolutely incredible.

 

Team InGest (Eric McClean, Mark Clerkin, Cathal Coffey and Daniel Kelly) from NUI Maynooth finished FOURTH in the software design competition, again just a stunning achievement for Ireland's first time entering this competition.  There were 55 countries competing in the Imagine Cup 2007 - fantastic job rising to the top!  What's more: Team InGest finished in the top six of the BT Innovation Accelerator, which means they are closer to turning their sign language software solution into a business reality.

 

Imagine Cup 2008 will be held this time next year in Paris - Ireland will be ready!  Many thanks to Liam Cronin along with the team mentors, Bryan Duggan and Tom Lysaght!
