June 2010 – Yellowstone awarded an Innovation Voucher by Enterprise Ireland
Citizens' Digital Participation is core to Ireland’s economic recovery over the coming years and at Yellowstone we take that seriously enough to do something about it – we are developing an iPhone App that connects into the objectives of the LINK programme; it is for this reason that Enterprise Ireland awarded us an Innovation Voucher.
To help us develop our project, we are working with the engineering department from Dublin City University. Working with the team at DCU has been an informative process for the team at Yellowstone and we really value this opportunity to become innovators.
September 2009 – Yellowstone wins € 2 million contract
15th September Dublin City Council awards four year design and print management contract to Yellowstone estimated to be worth in excess of 2 million Euro. Yellowstone has 15 years experience in public sector work.
The original tender specification was downloaded by 130 potential applicants for across Europe, and whittled down over an 11 month period to a short list of just 7 companies.
"Knowing that we beat off some very stiff competition from abroad is hugely satisfying; it shows that our investment in rigorous managements systems was well worth all the time and effort - we deserve this" said MD Leo Duffy.
Director and former Green party candidate Sheila Fogarty makes much of the 'Think global, act local' green perspective, "A company of our size has to be incredibly efficient to compete in the present global market, so that's a given; the value added is our commitment to other Irish SME's - we espouse the 'Buy Irish' call to business, and we're proud of it"
June 2009 - Yellowstone sponsors exhibition at IMMA
The exhibition.entitled "A Long Long Way - Letters from the Great War", was commissioned by Dublin City Libraries and developed and designed by Yellowstone to coincide with the selection of Sebastian Barry's book "A Long Long Way" for Dublin City's One City One Book event in 2007. It also marked the donation of the collection of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers Association by Dublin City Council's Libraries and Archive. Much of the material was drawn from the collection and supplemented with photography from the Imperial War Museum. The exhibition comprises 11 free standing graphic panels, together with a short video sequence. It will be located in the basement stairwell of the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, in the approach to the museum the shop and restaurant area. Yellowstone sponsored both the installation and promotion of the exhibition on Memorial Day 14th July 2009 as our contribution to remembering those who fought so bravely.
