Launch of Invent’s Business-Start-Programme – 19^th March 2009

One of Ireland’s most successful training programmes for budding entrepreneurs / staff / students will launch on Friday 24^th April 2009 at the Invent Centre, DCU.

The Business-Start-Programme (BSP) is a six week intensive Start Your Own Business Course aimed at technology start-ups. This programme offers people with a business idea the chance to investigate its potential. It takes participants through the planning elements necessary for start-up business and 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. This tried and tested 6-week course is designed to fit around the working day and so sessions are held on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings in Invent. The course is heavily subsidised resulting in a cost per participant of only €300.

Recruitment for the Business-Start-Programme will commence immediately. Places are limited so if you are interested in participating in this programme, please contact Maria Johnston at maria.johnston@invent.dcu.ie or phone (01) 700 7597.
