A cyber security and investment conference in Tralee heard that Kerry has the talent to meet global demand in the sector, Radio Kerry reported. The Cantillon Quarter event examined how local businesses can connect with international markets. [1]

Máire Sogabe, Senior Vice President and Market Advisor for Enterprise Ireland, told the gathering that an opportunity exists to link local talent with global demand. According to Radio Kerry, she explained that winning internationally requires market insight and access alongside a great product, encouraging Kerry companies not to limit their ambitions. [1]
