Bizstartup.ie - NewsStart-up session for graduates in Cork

Facilitated by Joanne Hession, founder of Quality Education Development, it will be an interactive session on ideas generation, how to assess business ideas and take the next steps to develop ideas toward launching a new business.

This programme is suitable for graduates who would like to come up with a new business idea but are unsure how to go about it or would like to set up a new business but are unsure of the initial steps to take.

During the session participants will:

• Understand what makes a winning business idea
• Look at sources of new business ideas
• Examine trends and new business ideas
• Get direction on where to go with their business idea – what steps to take
• Get information on the support infrastructure available to new businesses, eg advice, training, mentoring, funding opportunities.

The session will be coordinated by Cork City Enterprise Board and UCC staff.  Enterprise Board staff will be on hand throughout to work with graduates in groups and provide information on government agency and other supports available to business start-ups.
