Irish Business Design Challenge

We know that small businesses are the bread and butter of Ireland’s economy. We also know that small businesses can make big changes that create real impact. If you have had to re-imagine or re-invent your business as a result of COVID-19 we want to hear from you. The Irish Business Design Challenge is a competition with a prize fund of €50,000. We are inviting micro, small and medium Irish businesses to share the challenges they are experiencing as a result of COVID-19 and the solutions they have designed to resolve them. find out more →
