Going for Growth, the award-winning business development programme for ambitious female entrepreneurs, is looking for applications for the latest cycle of the initiative.
The programme goes from strength to strength as it celebrates its 10th birthday, with previous participants reporting significant progress in developing and expanding their businesses.
The six-month part-time programme, which is sponsored by Enterprise Ireland and KPMG, will run from January to June 2018. There is no charge to those who are selected to participate.
The deadline for applications for Going for Growth is Friday, December 8 2017 – full details can be found in the launch brochure, available at www.goingforgrowth.com.
Derval O’Rourke, Cork health and fitness entrepreneur, who is a previous programme participant, said of her experience: “Participating in Going for Growth was one of the most positive experiences I’ve had to help grow my business. Being surrounded by like-minded women was hugely influential. I would recommend the programme to anyone with ambition to grow their business”.
The programme is for female entrepreneurs, across all sectors, who are strongly focused on growth. Ideally their businesses will be well established and they will have been trading for at least two years.
With the focus very much on action and results, participants work in interactive round table sessions led by successful female entrepreneurs and businesswomen who share their experience and insights with the group on a completely voluntary basis.
They support the participants to examine and address the issues and challenges they face in driving growth in their businesses.
Those interested in applying should register their interest on www.goingforgrowth.com and an application form will be sent out to them.
