Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

SME Energy and Carbon Demands, Green Initiatives and Technology: Discussion

Mr. John Magee:

There are 7,200 companies in the national LEO portfolio. They are companies which will have received what we typically call "measure 1 financial support". However, our reach is much broader in each of the counties. We do not have an exact figure for County Mayo but we understand there are approximately 5,000 companies there. Approximately 10% of those, or maybe a little less, will have had some sort of engagement around the financial support. However, our reach is much broader in the context of our training, mentoring and general guidance. A significantly broader cohort of companies at local level are engaged with LEOs. We do all sorts of training programmes in areas such as financial skills, marketing skills, etc.
