The app that connects creative businesses with a previously unconnected market – the tourist market, has gethered considerable interest in Northern Ireland media having been featured in the Newry Democrat, Newry.ie, The Daily Mirror, Down News, CraftNI, Down News and the Bangor Spectator

Following on from the successful media coverage the Northern Ireland radio station BBC Radio Ulster will dedicate the full 30 mins of it’s special arts show to the new Creative Momentum app “Creative Trails”.
