Midlands & West Enterprise Programme, 2010

The MWEP run jointly by Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology and Athlone Institute of Technology  is looking for a new batch of start-up companies for the 2010 programme that kicks off in April. From the press release:

This is a one-year programme providing entrepreneurs with business skills, networks, facilities and supports necessary to navigate and execute the business start-up process….The MWEP provides participants with business acumen, office desk space, mentoring, networking, facilities, and supports necessary to help them in establishing and running their own businesses. Participants should have a business idea with growth and export potential.

There’s some more information on the programme brochure [pdf] (including profiles of two recent companies that came through it two years ago – eMedia and Active Mind).

Ambient Age has been one of the participants in the 2009 programme which is coming to an end in the next couple of months, and if you have an idea for a business, the MWEP is a good way of helping you to get it off the ground.
