Enterprise Ireland outlines plans for 600 Irish firms

The new Brexit strategy unveiled by Enterprise Ireland to assist companies in diversifying into eurozone countries should be replicated by the Government as a matter of national policy to assist small business, according to a lobby group representing SMEs.

Enterprise Ireland unveiled its eurozone strategy yesterday, dividing 600 of its clients into two groups that will provide grants, marketing, training, and support for UK market-reliant companies to target new trade markets in the EU.

Half of the companies are designated as ‘eurozone start’, which are relatively new to the market and who are heavily reliant on the UK, while the remainder are ‘eurozone scale’, which are already exporting to Europe.
