National Womens Enterprise Day - Wednesday 26 November
Mary Coughlan, Tanaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment will give the opening address at the National Womens Enterprise Day on Wednesday 26th November.
Hosted by the County and City Enterprise Boards, the National Women's Enterprise Day will be starting on the evening of Tuesday 25th November with some informal networking and for a full day on Wednesday 26th November in Mullingar, Co. Westmeath. This event aims to inspire, activate and assist women across the country in running their own business.
