Tourism NI Launches £80,000 Small Business Research Initiative Competition
A new Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) competition has been launched by Tourism NI, seeking innovative, real time tourism technology solutions to encourage visitors to explore more, do more and spend more during their visit to Northern Ireland.

Phase two will provide a working prototype which will demonstrate real time solutions encouraging visitors to explore more of Northern Ireland. The prototype should also provide Tourism NI with an intelligent dashboard that provides real time data, measuring visitors' movements around Northern Ireland, spend and experience. The total budget for phase two is £65,000.
An information session will be held at Linum Chambers, Bedford Street, Belfast on 29 July at 10:00. To register, contact Tourism NI via Email: info@tourismni.com. Make the subject line of the email SBRI.
