Overview

Easy Transition

In 2018, founder and director of Tiny Homes, Colla McMahon, participated in Phase 1 of Enterprise Ireland’s New Frontiers entrepreneur programme at the Rubicon Centre, receiving advice and mentorship on how to progress his Tiny Homes business idea. From June to August 2019, Colla continued to advance his business by participating in the joint MTU/UCC student entrepreneur programme Student Inc. Colla then proceeded to Phase 2 of the New Frontiers programme, which ran from October to April, 2020, receiving funding and further support from Rubicon Centre staff to assist in accelerating the growth of Tiny Homes.

“Student Inc. gave me the opportunity to focus exclusively on growing my company. The quality of speakers we were introduced to in the programme was phenomenal. I benefited immensely through hearing their experiences of founding, scaling, and selling multi-million-euro companies. Student Inc. taught me skills relating to all aspects of starting and running a company that have been hugely beneficial for my business.”
