He saw great potential in how the centre had, within just a couple of years, established itself as a key player in Information Communication Technology (ICT) related business activities. He was committed to helping us promote the exciting and viable new ideas that originate within our centre, and getting them market-ready.<\/p><p>We were very fortunate to have been able to work closely with Paul for many years, and our thoughts are with his family at this time.<\/p><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past weekend saw the announcement that Paul Helminger, former Luxembourg City mayor and SnT research fellow, has died at the age of 80.
