Eight out of every ten (88%) female entrepreneurs on the 'Going for Growth' development programme pivoted their business in the last few months in response to challenges raised by Covid-19.

The six-month, part-time programme, supported by Enterprise Ireland and KPMG, assists ambitious female entrepreneurs who welcome peer support to help grow their business. The figures were gathered in their most recent end of cycle survey.
