Our March lunch briefing saw guest speaker Paddy Savage from InterTradeIreland brief our members. Cross Border trade is valued at €2.5 Billion and with an all island public procurement market valued at €12.2 billion, there are opportunities worth considering no matter where your business is located on the island. Paddy went through the supports that they offer that include
1.Business Funding 2. Access to Expertise and Mentoring 3. Research and Statistics
4. Venture Capital & Business Angel Services 5. Help with Public Procurement
6. Information and Advice 7. Events and Workshops
The lunch was attended by over 60 businesses from Kildare and the feedback from the event has been excellent. Our engagement with InterTradeIreland will progress further with Tender Workshops now being scheduled
