The Rubicon Centre Flies the Flag for Womens Enterprise at the South West Conference for National Womens Enterprise Day 2024
We are pleased to be among those attending the Local Enterprise Office Southwest National Womens Enterprise Day 2024 Conference in Maryborough Hotel Thursday, 17th October.
Female entrepreneurship is and has always been very important to us here at the Rubicon Centre and what better way to celebrate than coming together to learn and share from each other’s experiences.
It is no secret that entrepreneurship is a historically male-dominated field. For the last twelve years, we have been dedicated to providing targeted programmes, including PINC, EXXCEL and Empower Cumasú to suppport female founders at The Rubicon Centre in Bishopstown.
During that time we have also seen steadily increasing female participation in Enterprise Ireland’s New Frontiers programme. This year 7 of the 15 start ups, participating in New Frontiers Phase 2, are led by female founders.
Expressions of interest are now being taken both for New Frontiers Phase 1 and Exxcel on the Rubicon’s website.
