The Virtual Event was an evening event which was led and hosted by Richard Curran assisted by Alison Campbell Director of KTI Office.
The event consisted of a pre-recorded video from An Tanáiste Leo Varadkar and then Richard Curran Introduced the Awards which consisted of 4 categories; Commercialisation Impact Award, Industry Engagement Impact Award, COVID-19 Response and People’s Choice Award.
As part of the show, winners appeared live on air to chat with our host Richard Curran after the winners were announced.
Grooveyard provided a voting system for attendees to vote for their winner of the People’s Choice Award.
