Final Call for New Business Ideas! 2 funded scholarships available – apply by Wednesday 21st of October @5pm

One of Ireland’s most successful support programmes for budding entrepreneurs will launch this October 20th at The LINC at the Institute of Technology in Blanchardstown.

The M50 Enterpise Start Programme is a six week part-time programme offering people with a business idea the chance to investigate its potential. The programme takes participants through the planning elements necessary for start-up business. It is aimed at people with a desire to develop a technology or knowledge intensive business with export potential.

Many students who participated in past programmes have gone on to open their own successful enterprises, others have followed up the programme by enrolling on the M50 Enterprise Platform Programme – a 12 month full-time entrepreneur programme which is currently open for Spring enrollments.

The M50 Enterprise Start Programme is a great springboard for those of you who have an idea that you have always wondered about. It is programmed to fit around people who work and sessions are held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. One of the participants from last years programme found that the course “helped focus my mind and increase awareness of what I needed to do next.” The course is heavily subsidized resulting in a cost per participant of only €200.

Recruitment for the M50 Enterprise Start Programme will commence immediately.

If you are interested in participating in either programme you may contact me by emailing linc@itb.ie or call (01) 8851502
