National Self Employment Day: Friday, February 25th

National Self Employment Day: Friday, February 25th

As part of the National Employment Week, Sigmar are proud to host the National Self Employment Day on Friday, February 25th.

The objective  of National Employment Week is to raise awareness of Self Employment as a real opportunity for many job seekers.

Employment is largely demand driven, which in turn is either geographical and industry specific. Self employment can take many shapes, from being an independent contractor, to opening a franchise or private enterprise. The practical consideration is almost always going to be finance, business support and indeed expertise.

The National Self Employment Day will look to address some of the challenges facing people considering setting up their own business.

Date:
Friday 25th February 2011

Venue:
The Royal College of Physicians, Dublin 2

Theme:
To highlight self employment as a realistic option for jobseekers. To foster entrepreneurship.


Speakers at the event on February 25th will include:

Sean Gallagher, Dragon's Den

Jim Power, Chief Economist Friends First

David Killeen, Chairman of the Irish Franchise Association

Councilor Gerry Breen, Lord Mayor of Dublin

Eibhlin Curley, Assistant CEO, Dublin City Enterprise Board will be on the panel to answer questions.
