Waterford-Institute-Technology-Presentation.docx.txt

The guiding principle in the development of WIT€ s research environment has been the prioritisation of its research activities in critical areas (most notably ICT/mobile networks and services and pharmaceutical science)

In particular WIT through the Telecommunications Software and Systems Group (TSSG)/ Arclabs Innovation Centre embodies the Institute†s stated research philosophy of driving regional economic development through our global reputation

The prioritised areas of ICT (mobile networks and services) and pharmaceutical and molecular biotechnology research have developed into large-scale research centres of international reputation and with a strong interdisciplinary focus.

At the core of the model is the traditional academic focus on internationally peer reviewed scientific research and postgraduate education.

The model has created a Mobile Services Cluster in the South East employing over 120 research engineers where previously no such industry existed.

Intellectual property (IP) generated through the Telecommunications Software & Systems Group (TSSG) has created 11 spin off companies in the South East including Feedhenry

In particular WIT has focused on providing such programmes in the areas of ICT, financial services and business information systems, lean manufacturing, e-Marketing, innovative technologies and entrepreneurship

which generates an annual salary budget of approximately â 10 million (unique in the IOT sector

This represents approximately one quarter of all research funding received by the Iot sector as a whole.

WIT through the Telecommunications Software and Systems Group (TSSG) is engaged actively in steering the Future Internet agenda in Europe

The European Research Council †WIT€ s Macular Pigment Research Group was the first recipient with the Iot sector of a â 1. 5m award under the very prestigious Starting

At the core of the Institute†s Strategic Plan is its commitment to engagement and knowledge exchange with research partners, regional and national stakeholders and industry.

In particular through EU Framework Programmes and the SFI Strategic Research Clusters Programme, WIT through the TSSG as an established record of large scale research collaborations with multinationals such as IBM, Cisco, and EMC.

WIT has developed 3 Technology Gateway Centres funded by Enterprise Ireland in the areas of telecommunications and mobile services (TSSG), applied materials (SEAM) and pharmaceutical and molecular biotechnology (PMBRC.

These centres in particular have strengthened considerably the extent of the Institute†s research engagements with regional and national indigenous enterprises particularly in the ICT/software, industrial technologies, medical devices and pharmaceutical sectors

Overview of WIT Telecommunications Software & Systems Group (TSSG The TSSG is recognised an internationally centre of excellence for ICT research and innovation.

The Centre†s core expertise focuses on telecommunication networks, security and mobile services. Since its foundation in 1996, TSSG has become an important catalyst for driving economic change in the South East Region,

TSSG is engaged also actively in steering the Future Internet agenda in Europe, and is a partner

and member of many European technology platforms and strategic groups of Industry collaborators, including Future Internet Assembly (FIA);

ETSI, the Industry Specification Group, Internet on Identity and Access Management; Tidl, Trust in the Digital Life initiative;

since September 2004, a taught MSC in Computing, specialising in Communications Software, with a thematic research focus on communications management, service development, security and new developments in ubiquitous and pervasive computing.

TSSG research teams comprise some of Ireland†s leading telecommunications and software engineering experts; this knowledge and expertise has enabled us to work with academic and industry leaders from around the globe.

TSSG€ s industry collaborators include Nokia, Ericsson, Nokia Siemens Networks and Alcatel-lucent †as well as Tier 1 operators including Telefã nica/O2, T-Mobile, Telecom italia, Vodafone, Telenor Group, Portugal Telecom and many more

Ranked as one of the top 10 research organisations shaping †Future Internet†research by the European commission,

Its international reputation for innovation has attracted over 100 highly skilled software engineers from around the world to the Region for the benefit of local industry.

The impact of this innovation platform was acknowledged recently by Enterprise Ireland in the Public Accounts Debate. â€oewaterford is a shining example of how co-locating the incubation centre with the institute has led to the establishment of a software industry that probably should not have existed in Waterford.

Products produced in the Region range from generic tablets to high-value antibody, enzyme and vaccine medications.
