David Byrne, founder and CEO, ReaDI-Watch said, “In today's era of digitalisation and sustainability, our platform gives companies back the innovation capability and control to drive their businesses to success by providing them with a digital framework to execute on best-practice and informed RD&I strategies.”
“I am very excited to be exhibiting ReaDI-Watch to a global audience at next week’s Web Summit event as we seek to scale internationally and gain traction in the UK and North American markets. To support this strategy, we plan to double our workforce from 7 to 14 people during the coming year, and plan to invest heavily in our proprietary technology and capability to continue to grow at an accelerated rate.”
