Innovation Voucher Initiative

€5,000 Voucher for Innovation Projects

Enterprise Ireland’s Innovation Voucher initiative was developed to build links between Ireland’s public knowledge providers (i.e. higher education institutes, public research bodies) and small businesses. Innovation Vouchers worth €5,000 are available to assist a company or companies to explore a business opportunity or problem with a registered knowledge provider. IT Sligo is a registered Knowledge Provider with Enterprise Ireland and has completed numerous projects for SMEs based in the north-west region through the Innovation Voucher Initiative and other higher value collaborative Innovation Partnership funding programs. Full details of these funding schemes can be found at  http://www.enterprise-ireland.com/en/Research-Innovation/Companies/Collaborate-with-companies-research-institutes/Innovation-Voucher.shortcut.html

Projects range from development of a brand new product to the introduction of a more sustainable process or work practice.
