Three women speak about their experiences as successful entrepreneurs

Tomorrow is the deadline for applications to Going for Growth,a peer support programme which helps women grow their business. Afric McGlinchey spoke to entrepreneurs, Oonagh O’Hagan, Siobhan Lawless and Marion Murphy Cooney, about what they learned on the programme

WHEN we think of big businesses, we visualise men at the helm. “Men tend to be bigger risk-takers. They don’t see barriers; they just go for it,” says Siobhan Lawless, the founder of Foods of Athenry. “Women tend to take a more measured approach.”

Applications for our 7th cycle close this WEDNESDAY 10th December! Make sure you don't miss the deadline!
