It is already home to a growing cohort of business innovators driving new developments in technology and science. Now, with the arrival of Munster Technological University (MTU), and an emerging network of entrepreneurial supports and resources, Kerry is positioning itself to take centre-stage in the knowledge economy in the south-west.
The recently formed MTU represents a major advancement in the provision of third-level education to students, both national and international, and research and development centres that will offer valuable support companies in the region.
Tralee Court - Radio Kerry News - EH
The Courts Service will meet the local authority this week to discuss options for a new courthouse in Tralee.
The Courts Service says it’s pro-actively seeking to progress the provision of new and world class court facilities in the town.
The Courts Service says it’s well aware the facilities at the courthouse on Ashe Street are not adequate for the 21st century.
It says that last month its buildings committee agreed the refurbishment of the existing courthouse would not provide the facilities required to deliver modern courts services to the people of Kerry.
