Innovation 2020, Ireland's current strategy for research and development, science and technology, was launched by the Taoiseach and the Ministers for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, and Research and Skills at the 2015 Innovation Showcase in the National Convention Centre on the 8th December 2015. The showcase was attended by over 2,000 delegates from across industry, academia, the public sector and Ireland's research system.
