​Ergo, Ireland’s leading indigenous IT solutions provider, is excited to sponsor the IT Project of the Year category at the 2024 Belfast Telegraph IT Awards.

This is Ergo’s first time sponsoring the award and comes on the back of an exciting year for the company, which saw the expansion of its presence in Northern Ireland and the appointment of John Molloy as general manager for Northern Ireland.

Ergo’s overarching goal for its Northern Irish facility is to develop a centre for research and development that fosters a culture of innovation and technological advancement to ensure Ergo customers are prepared for today while planning for tomorrow.

Mr Molloy said: “It is an exciting opportunity for Ergo to sponsor this award as we continue to bolster our strong presence across Northern Ireland, invest in our team and strengthen our capabilities.

“While we have had a presence in the region for several years, our recent expansion aligns closely with the broader business strategy of contributing to economic growth, job creation, and the export of technological expertise from Northern Ireland as well as developing our relationships with customers across the public and private sector.”

As part of the expansion, Ergo has invested in a number of strategic hires, including Alistair Stoops who is based in Belfast as the company’s data, analytics and AI Lead.

Alistair is working with Ergo’s clients across both the public and private sectors to help them realise value from their data and deploy artificial intelligence to meaningfully support their business objectives.

Data, analytics and AI is a key business pillar for Ergo, as a sector that continues to evolve at a pace where success depends on breaking down data silos, reducing complexity and empowering more users to work smarter.

Alistair and his team advise customers on the right data architecture for an individual business, ensuring data becomes the ultimate asset.

Another core component for Ergo is its valued relationships with partners and earlier this year, Ergo was named Microsoft Partner of the Year for Ireland.
