Carlow Kilkenny <strong>Skillnet</strong><br />
Coming back from the Brink – network collaboration<br />
Carlow Kilkenny <strong>Skillnet</strong> collaborated<br />
with three other networks, waterford<br />
Chamber <strong>Skillnet</strong>, County Tipperary<br />
<strong>Skillnet</strong> and South East Micro <strong>Skillnet</strong><br />
to host ‘The Business Summit – Coming<br />
back from the Brink’. The summit was<br />
attended by 90 business people across<br />
the South East.<br />
Changing or developing a business<br />
in a competitive landscape can be one<br />
of the greatest uphill struggles of an<br />
entrepreneur’s life. Over 97% of<br />
businesses operating in Ireland today<br />
are ‘small’ businesses, and the summit<br />
highlighted the role those in attendance<br />
had to play in coming back from the brink.<br />
Tech Northwest <strong>Skillnet</strong> is delivering<br />
a new series of training programmes<br />
specifically aimed at technology and<br />
knowledge companies based in the North<br />
West. LYIT is the promoting partner.<br />
Speakers provided valuable insights into:<br />
• Developing strategies for personal<br />
and business development<br />
• How to develop new products<br />
for your business<br />
• How to draw up a roadmap<br />
for success<br />
• Connecting with like minded business<br />
people to create opportunities<br />
