NEW FRONTIERS PHASE 1
We are currently accepting applications to our 2023 New Frontiers "Test the Idea" Programmes.
Phase 1's programme will help you investigate the market potential of your business idea & gain an understanding of the entrepreneurship & the supports available.
It is the ideal way to prepare for our 6-month "Develop the Business" Phase 2 Programme
Recent Participants said the following when they finished the Phase 1 Programme:
"Wish I completed this programme before developing software as it would definitely made me stop and think longer and I would have done things differently. It will definitely make you stop and think longer about how to do things differently. Fergal.
"It's brilliant, and refocuses the founder on the business, rather than just the 'dream'... It gets in the nuts & bolts of the reality of running a business, rather than what the hoped for output is by the founder..." Marian
