INTERTRADEIRELAND FUSION PROGRAMME ? HOW IT WORKS
The InterTradeIreland FUSION Programme offers Graduates an opportunity to manage technology transfer projects with some of the most progressive companies on the island of Ireland.? FUSION gives companies access to the wealth of expertise and facilities in our universities and colleges across the island of Ireland, allowing them to make strategic advances in innovation.? FUSION initially develops partnerships between companies with a technology need on one side of the border, and colleges or universities that can provide the required specialist expertise on the other side.? The partners work collectively to plan a specific project that will solve a technology need within the company.? A high calibre Graduate is then employed to spearhead the project for a period of up to 1 year and act as the link between the university and the company.? The successful FUSION Graduate will receive an attractive package and will also be given the opportunity to gain a fully-funded Post Graduate Diploma in Management from the Smurfit Business School in UCD.
In this instance 4PM Kennedy Estates Ltd and University of Ulster have partnered to carry out the project described below.

The University?s aim is to strengthen its links with industry, particularly SMEs across the island and to advance the dissemination of knowledge through technology transfer activities. The Faculty of Computing & Engineering in particular has a long tradition of strong links with industry and has developed a dedicated Knowledge and Technology Transfer Division dedicated to industrial collaboration. Moreover, both see FUSION as a valuable vehicle for enhancing curriculum development and increasing the industrial and commercial relevance of current undergraduate and postgraduate courses through generation of new project material and case studies.
More specifically, the School of Computing and Mathematics has been developing teaching provision and research in mobile computing. This project should provide a useful opportunity to transfer our findings so far to the company partner and to benefit from their experience of designing and developing mobile applications within a commercial setting.
