A LIMERICK-based company has been nominated for a prestigious industry innovation prize.

WrxFlo provides data insights to blue-chip clients from across the globe. The aim of this is to help achieve greater levels of efficiency.

Based at University of Limerick, it is one of eight shortlisted companies which will go forward and take part in the Irish final of the KPMG Global Tech Innovator competition for 2024.

Now in its fourth year, the competition provides a platform to showcase the best of Ireland’s emerging tech innovators across a range of sectors.

The finalists were selected after a high volume of entries were evaluated across a number of categories.

Staff from these companies will now pitch their innovations and growth ambitions to an esteemed panel of judges.

This includes Eimear Hennessy, the global head of enterprise services from Stripe which was founded by Castletroy College educated brothers John and Patrick Collison.
