Introducing "EirePreneurZ" - the Irish startup interviews

I'll soon be posting the first installment in a new series of interviews with Irish startups which I'm calling, simply, EirePreneurZ. I've got the first interviewee lined up and will be publishing the dialogue after my return from Germany but I'm getting the word out now so as to line up a few more candidates.

I'm doing this because I'm keen to learn from the experiences of other entrepreneurs and there's no better way than talking to them. The idea comes from the People in Business section of the Sunday Business post which I really enjoy but regularly feel dissatisfied with, primarily by lack of depth. I want to know more about the background of Irish entrepreneurs, what makes them tick, why they chose to take the risk of going it alone, etc.

Interviews will take the form of an email exchange and companies covered will certainly not be limited to the IT area. In fact my first interviewee's business has nothing to do with the internet (though of course they do have a website). My only requirement is that the business catches my imagination, is innovative, does something I haven't seen before and just stimulates the entrepreneurial juices.
