Entrepeneurs encouraged to apply for funding.


Tipperary entrepreneurs are being encouraged to apply for remaining places under the Enterprise Ireland Fund.

South Tipp Fine Gael TD Tom Hayes made the call as it was announced today that 30 entrepreneurs are already set to benefit from up to €1.5 million in funding from the organisation.

The Competitive Start Fund provides young companies in the ICT & Industrial sectors with the critical early stage funding to test the market for their products and services and progress their business plans for the global marketplace.

Deputy Hays says local entrepreneurs still have the opportunity to apply under the next round of funding which opens tomorrow and closes on October 10th.

In total there is still €750,000 up for grabs from Enterprise Ireland.
