Telefónica’s accelerator programme Wayra has signed up two new companies for its Dublin project.

Trustev and Conker join the original nine firms that entered the accelerator last year, and will pitch to investors at a demo day in May. They will benefit from a €40,000 investment and access to workspace and advice at Wayra’s premises in O2’s Dublin headquarters.

Trustev, aiming to help “social fingerprinting technology” to provide real time identity verification, raised the money from both Irish and international sources. Conker develops Player Experience Management software for games companies.
