Leading provider of hospitality technology Kappture has chosen Galway City as the location for the expansion of its Software Development Hub with the creation of at least 20 new roles.
Currently operating out of The Portershed, the team will focus on the development of its cutting-edge AI platform, BRISK, as well as innovating on its core EPOS solutions.
Kappture works with some of the world’s most iconic live event brands including Croke Park, Thomond Park, six English Premier League clubs, Ascot, Cheltenham, Aintree, Punchestown, Celtic FC, Olympique Lyonnais, ASM Global and many more.
Developed in Galway, BRISK is a world leading AI computer vision action tracking platform. It’s first application will be for food & beverage retail at sports and live event venues. Using edge compute, BRISK is the first and only solution of its kind to offer instant payments with a human-free checkout experience. BRISK will remove the all too familiar experience of long queues for food & beverages at your favourite sports matches, concerts, and other live events.
The first deployment is now live with Norwich FC with many more planned across Ireland, the UK and globally.
Kappture is backed by Irish private equity investor Renatus Capital Partners.
