Enterprise Ireland is pleased to announce that we are launching a call for Artisan Food businesses, that are sole traders or partnerships businesses, to apply for an Artisan Food Innovation Voucher.The call will be competitive and no more than forty vouchers will be awarded.      

Applications will be made through Enterprise Ireland’s Food Business unit rather than the online Innovation Voucher system that is typically used. Companies will be advised to email ArtisanFoodInnovationVoucher@enterprise-ireland.com and request an application form. This word document will be completed and returned to ArtisanFoodInnovationVoucher@enterprise-ireland.com before the closing date below.

The call for applications will open on March 8^th and will close at 5.30pm on Thursday April 21^st 2016.

The €5,000 voucher from Enterprise Ireland will support these Artisan Food Businesses to undertake a project with the Public Knowledge Providers including Teagasc and will be valid for 12 months from the date of issue. We expect that successful applications will receive their Innovation voucher in early May.

If you have any questions please call Jenny Melia on 01-7272485 or 087-9136629 or contact my colleague Sean Salmon on 01-7272855
