All these programs will get you fast track to CORD funding and offer incubation space and a variety of training programs. However, their most valuable asset is exposure to like minded entrepreneurs for a 12 month period.
I’ve created a search engine dedicated to Irish Startups. It has a dedicated page, but its actually a Google Customised Search Engine.
I need your help to keep it up to date, so please add yourself as a collaborator and bung in your own Irish business website and any others you can think of.
Give it spin.
