Enterprise Ireland supports companies throughout the country to start, innovate and remain competitive in international markets, now and into the future.  In addition, with the advent of the network of Local Enterprise Offices, Enterprise Ireland now plays a critical role in driving and nurturing entrepreneurship all the way from an originating idea at local level, to taking on global markets.
