Weekend tech digest, AR, VR, Mobile journalism, Singapore, Bitcoin, Blockchain, Fintech & 2.3 million twitter impressions!

By @SimonCocking. We had a great day at the Tech Connect Live event at the RDS yesterday. Lots of great speakers and also fantastic to meet lots of friends and associates, many of whom we met in person for the first time. Reaffirming the value of face to face contact and why Ireland can be such a great place to do business, because so many people are so contactable. We hit 2.2 million twitter impressions for the last 28 days, our highest ever total, and were media partners at four separate events this month alone. As always we’re thankful for the support and encouragement from you, our readers, both in and outside of Ireland. Here’s to more great months this year and beyond.
