Kappture is to take 20 new staff at its software development hub in Galway. Currently operating out of The Portershed, the expanded team will focus on the development of its AI platform BRISK as well as innovating on its core point of sale solutions.

This project is supported by the Irish Government through IDA Ireland.

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.

BRISK is an AI computer vision action tracking platform that offers instant payments with a human-free checkout experience. Its first deployment is now live with Norwich FC with more planned across Ireland, the UK and globally.

Neil Haran, CTO, Kappture, said: “BRISK is the world’s only solution that can take payments for food & beverages instantly with no human interaction. BRISK has global applications to remove the pain points of queues at live events, to make it a better experience for fans and more efficient for venue operators. Our ambition is to bring highly skilled talent to Galway and to increase its standing as a hub for AI, innovation and creativity”

Kappture is backed by Irish private equity investor Renatus Capital Partners.
