Techovate2012-an inspiring event

The inaugural Techovate conference took place in Wexford Opera House on Wed 21st and Thurs 22nd March. 400 delegates converged in Wexford with speakers from the world’s global technology leaders such as Google, IBM, Cisco, Facebook, Microsoft and LinkedIn as well as the best Irish entrepreneurs including Terry Clune, Taxback Group, David Walsh, Netwatch and our own MD, Simon O’Dwyer, Threesixty.

“The South East has the potential to become the Silicon Valley of Ireland and it is an ideal location for technology companies to establish and provide employment” Minister for Research and Innovation, Sean Sherlock TD. Minister Sherlock said: “It would be foolish of us as a government not to look closely at how Enterprise Ireland, the IDA and organisations like Techovate can work together to create a unique network of businesses working together throughout the South East to create clusters and hubs that can be replicated right across the country.”

The FUSE Initiative and Service Cluster Ireland

Having previously collaborated with Enterprise Ireland on IDEAGEN, Threesixty was delighted to be asked to follow on the success with the co-development, identity, branding and promotion of the FUSE Initiative which launched in January 2011.

The FUSE Initiative is a 2-year project by entrepreneurs in the South-East of Ireland which aims to ignite growth among regional businesses and attract high-growth businesses to the region.

Now one year on, FUSE has launched a number of projects that will help drive innovation and business partnership, one of which is Service Cluster Ireland. Service Cluster Ireland is aimed at helping Irish businesses improve commercial performance through service design. Threesixty also designed the brand identity and website for Service Cluster Ireland.

Today, FUSE has over 200 members. The success of FUSE is testament to the tenacity, drive and entrepreneurial spirit of the businesses involved.
Threesixty is proud to be a part of FUSE and looks forward to more exciting projects with the initiative during 2012.

Sarcopenia brochure for Carbery

Threesixty worked closely with the team at Carbery to design and copywrite this brochure which is an introduction to sarcopenia – the natural age-associated decline of muscle mass over time. It has been suggested that sarcopenia is as harmful as osteoporosis but less well known.

The consumption of high quality protein such as whey protein in association with exercise can play an active part in the prevention of sarcopenia. As the fastest growing age group in the world, seniors are an important emerging market sector for food and beverage manufacturers to develop nutritional products for an active and healthy lifestyle.

This brochure was produced for FiE (Food Ingredients Europe) which took place in November in Germany.

Well-known for its technical expertise and innovation in the sports nutrition industry, Carbery offers whey protein ingredients that can be used to enrich a variety of nutritional applications.
