Boston, MA and Dublin, Ireland, May 14, 2013: ACTION (Association of CleanTech Incubators of New England) and The Green Way, Dublin’s Cleantech Cluster, announce a major partnership to accelerate the commercialization and globalization of clean technologies and innovations. The main beneficiaries of this partnership will be cleantech incubators and their client companies, academic institutions and government organizations located in both clusters, who are seeking strategic business alliances and joint research projects, and who are interested in sourcing cutting-edge technologies, commercialization opportunities and related competencies not available in their own locality.

“The historic connection between the New England region and Ireland makes this partnership a natural”, said Michael Ryan, president of ACTION. “Ireland’s close proximity to New England creates a great beachhead for Irish companies and entrepreneurs while offering the same benefit to US-based companies interested in European markets.”
