Design Week 2011

Questions for reflection:

How does the city link to its digital “cloud”?

How can the players on the online dimension get together to offer new ideas and proposals that would enrich the digital dimension of Limerick?

Objective:

Connected Limerick hopes to be: – a catalyst for making Limerick more visible in the

digital world, and – support both visitors and citizens with information

in their trajectories around the physical city.

From this encounter, the opportunity for new ventures might emerge.
