Enter The Eurozone

SoftTrace were delighted to commence the Enterprise Ireland – Entering the Eurozone programme at ESMT in Berlin last week.

Lynn Harte and Hannah Barry took part in the Strategic module with 4 days of creative workshops and insightful lectures from Francis de Vericourt, Thomas Ritter and Klaus Hilleke.

We would like to thank Paul Browne of Enterprise Ireland for selecting SoftTrace for this programme as well as IMS’s own Denise Kennedy, Leonie Tansey and our market advisor Karagh Kelly for their help before, during and after our trip.

A special mention to our amazing hosts Nan Guo and Julia Grube of ESMT Berlin for an unforgettable week from start to finish!

Our mascot Tracie also attended the week in Berlin!

Bake Sale in aid of the Midleton Hub

During the month of September, SoftTrace held a bake sale at our offices in Carrigtwohill, with all funds raised going to the Midleton Hub.

The Midleton Hub is raising funds with a target of €100,000 to provide a proper mental health facility for those impacted by suicide and mental health difficulties. During September its founder Bunny O Riordan led a motorcycle run around the 32 counties of Ireland to begin this fundraising drive.

The aim of the fundraising is to provide a community-based centre where people can feel safe, welcome and create connections with others, in a culture of openness, honesty and confidentiality with regard to wellbeing and mental health.
