Amharc ar fhreagraThe Deputy will be aware that my Department has secured up to €145m in regional enterprise funding which is aimed at accelerating economic growth and sustainable job creation across all regions of the country.
The first call under the ‘Smart Regions Enterprise Innovation Scheme’ was announced last week. This €35m call will capitalise on existing regional enterprise partnerships and complement priorities set out in the nine Regional Enterprise Plans.
The Scheme is now open for applications on Enterprise Ireland’s website – www.enterprise-ireland.com/en/funding-supports/Smart-Region-Enterprise-Innovation-Scheme.
