Tipp Institute graduate shortlisted for award.


A Roscrea man has been nominated for a prestigious entrepreneur award.

Anthony Glynn from Roscrea is shortlisted for the 2014 David Manley Emerging Entrepreneur Awards which will be presented this Thursday.

The Tipperary Institute of Technology graduate designed the original concept for Dunk-E – a novel, patent-pending hydro turbine range that produces substantial electricity from the natural flow of water in small rivers, streams, weirs and sluice gates.

Anthony Glynn is shortlisted along with his business partner, James Sherlock, from Athlone for the award.
