Gráinne worked with Fáilte Ireland’s Investment and Innovation Team to provide expert advice on innovation development in tourism to support their three main tourism propositions based on the following clusters – Wild Atlantic Way, Ireland’s Ancient East and Dublin – A breath of fresh air.
This involved working with the team on best practice methods in fostering innovation and harnessing innovation capabilities inside the organisation.
The assignment also included strategies for building innovation in tourism SME’s and low-cost innovations that focus on incremental improvements to add value to existing offerings.
Gráinne developed innovation training material for strategy and innovation workshops and programmes to support Fáilte Ireland staff in hosting innovation workshops in destinations around the country.
