INNOVATE Limerick have added a podcast and vodcast studio to the Engine building in Limerick city centre.
The 4k Blackmagic Design multi-camera video and audio podcast Innovate Studio will be managed by Big Handsome Media, a media solutions and production company, in association with Innovate Limerick.
The Engine building, located on Upper Cecil Street, was established a number of years ago to "drive innovation forward" in Limerick.
Designed as a solution for entrepreneurs, start-ups and businesses, it has fixed office space, hot desking, fibre broadband, event spaces and meeting rooms.
Dennis Barry, CEO of Innovate Limerick said: “We are really excited about this new offering in Limerick City. One of Innovate Limerick’s core objectives is to work with the key stakeholders to develop Limerick’s business ecosystem and position Limerick City and County as one of the most attractive locations to start and grow a business.”
He feels the studio “allows people and businesses in Limerick the space and technical expertise of Brian Hurley and his team at Big Handsome Media to take advantage of podcasting to reach a local, national and even a global audience.”
Big Handsome Media owner Brian Hurley added that “Limerick has a vibrant creative and film community and we are excited to offer something new to compliment this. Teaming up with Innovate Limerick allows us to have a facility at a brilliant location with powerful digital connectivity. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to support people and businesses produce their stories. Big Handsome Media is happy to work with people at every level to bring their idea to life.”
