Science, Technology and Innovation Culture

Science, Technology and Innovation Culture

An increasing number of the opportunities and challenges facing our society revolve around the application of science and technology. Many of the jobs being created in Ireland come, for example, from new uses of sophisticated telecommunications. But difficult issues, alongside business and employment opportunities, can also arise from developments in technology, for example, from advances in genetic engineering. In order to sustain a viable economy and develop a vibrant culture into the 21st century, Irish society needs to develop greater confidence in dealing with the opportunities and challenges which science and technology present.
