Budding entrepreneurs to gather for UCC event

Young entrepreneurs from Ireland and farther afield will gather for three days of start-up workshops at UCC this weekend.

Following on from the successful inaugural Student Startup Weekend last year, this year’s iteration of the innovative student event takes place from Friday to Sunday.

“UCC and Cork as a whole is fast becoming a hub for young entrepreneurs and our event is targeting students from all over Ireland and abroad, with our organisational team made up of representatives from five of the top Irish universities, which include UCC, UCD, DCU, Trinity College Dublin and NUIG,” organiser David Harwicke said.
