An online dental check-up, an interactive driver monitoring system and a fantasy online sports site will go head-to-head with six other finalists to win thousands of euros in business services this weekend.
The companies, which cover such sectors as technology, medical services, food, sports and retail, are among the nine finalists that have made it to the last stage of the Blueface Business Elevator competition.
Entrepreneurs and start-ups are competing for €60,000 worth of telephony, advertising, public relations and other business services, with the winner due to be named on Saturday.
The competition began in May and the finalists were chosen from regional heats.
Drogheda’s CleverMiles, which aims to improve driver safety and reduce road accidents, will compete against New Age Memorials, which sells glass-fibre headstones and monuments that are weather- and age- proof, and educational software provider Thought Box. Also in the final is Galway winner Ireland’s Raw Kitchen, which imports and sells organic raw foods and superfoods.
