New networks respond to needs of business people

TWO business networks, one of them for women, were launched in west Cork by Enterprise, Trade and Employment Minister Micheál Martin last week.

The Small Business Network and the West Cork Business Women’s Network were kick-started in an initiative by the West Cork Enterprise Board.

The Small Business Network, which aims to promote entrepreneurship among men and women in small businesses throughout the region, will provide a forum for networking, plus regular informative business presentations.
