This workshop will be an introduction to the supports and services of the Local Enterprise Office and an explanation of the Grant Aid process and criteria.

The 1st hour of the Workshop will be a presentation and will be followed up by a Q&A session for one hour.

The Local Enterprise Office is the first point of contact for those setting up or in business in Westmeath. We have a role to guide and direct those in business to help build a sustainable enterprise culture in Westmeath which creates employment.

There are 4 pillars of supports to micro businesses provided by your Local Enterprise Office;

  • Training Programmes - Types of Training that is provided, LEAN training programmes etc.
  • Mentoring - Workshops and One to One Mentoring
  • Financial Products - Grant Aid, Trading Online Voucher Scheme, Exporting/Tradeshow grants (TAME)  
  • Other Government Supports - Microfinance Ireland supports, Economic Supports - Shopfront Enchancement Scheme, Outdoor Dining etc.

During this session we can get an understanding of you and your business and offer direction on the most relevant supports available. This is an ideal opportunity to get a sense of the enterprise supports that exist and consider how they may help you to develop your business. 

Grant Aid is available to micro-enterprises through the Local Enterprise Office that meet the national criteria.

This will give you the opportunity to consider and determine if your business or idea meets the criteria and is eligible to apply.
