Inventive Leap Partners with ARC Hub for ICT to Accelerate Research Commercialisation

The Inventive Leap Team are delighted to announce a new partnership with ARC Hub for ICT, ahead of the Hub’s official launch on Thursday, 29 January at TU Dublin Grangegorman.

ARC Hub’s mission is to transform cutting-edge Irish ICT and AI research into real-world, commercially viable solutions — and Inventive Leap is proud to play a role in bringing that ambition to life.

From theory to practice

As part of this collaboration, Inventive Leap has been invited to deliver key training and insights on Commercialisation Skills to ARC Hub’s first cohort of Technology Researchers (TRs). This will take place during an intensive two-and-a-half-day programme, designed to be both informative and highly interactive, supporting participants to turn theory into practical, real-world application.

Commercial Expertise, Built Around Your Innovation

Leveraging our extensive network of experts, we are thrilled to welcome Dr. Amrit Chandon to the programme, where he will deliver a Masterclass on Customer Discovery.

Amrit — a distinguished PhD holder in Chemical Engineering — embodies a rare combination of scientific rigour, entrepreneurial drive, and deep commitment to sustainability. His achievements include being named to the Forbes 30 Under 30, becoming a Rolex Awards finalist, and receiving the prestigious Hawley Award for Engineering Innovation, presented by HRH The Princess Royal.

As CEO and Co-Founder of ACELERON, Dr. Chandon has led groundbreaking innovations in energy storage, significantly reducing environmental impact 🌱. Following a successful exit, Amrit has now embarked on his adventure with Lorefully,  an AI start-up transforming customer conversations into content, insight and growth

Who better to learn from than someone who has successfully walked both paths — academic and entrepreneur?

A bold pathway

Inventive Leap is excited to support this important programme as it forges a bold entrepreneurial pathway for Irish research and innovation

Stephen McNulty, Founder of Inventive Leap, commented:

“This programme is vitally important as we work to bridge the gap between academic research and commercial success. By focusing on essential commercialisation skills, we are not just supporting the first cohort of Technology Researchers — we are laying the groundwork for a new wave of deep-tech companies that will drive innovation, create high-value jobs, and significantly strengthen the future of the Irish economy.”
