Thursday, April 21 is World Creativity and Innovation Day. The midlands of Ireland is not short of its share of innovators and creators, with businesses from Westmeath, Offaly and Meath regularly winning local, regional, national and international awards for their products and services. We’re sometimes modest to admit it but we are a bright bunch in the midlands and have our name in businesses throughout the world probably more than we realise.
Think on local companies based in Mullingar, such as Pem Automation, who are manufactures special-purpose machinery, tooling, and engineering products for customers in the Automotive, Healthcare and other manufacturing industries, or 360Tech Engineering who offer a host of Energy Solutions, Electrical Installations, Commercial Refrigeration, Air-Conditioning, Facilities Management and service and maintenance.
