Today we hosted our fifth Cluster Manager Lunch and Learn webinar session, an initiative to foster collaboration and best practice learning across the island of Ireland’s cluster ecosystem under the Shared Island Clusters and Networks initiative.   Today's topic, “Designing Cluster Services that Deliver Value for Members” was led by our guest speaker Eloi Montcada, Cluster Manager of the INNOVI Catalan Wine and Grape Cluster. Eloi provided an insightful session covering practical approaches to developing services in innovation, skills, internationalisation, and networking that SMEs value, use and pay for. If you’re a cluster manager on the island of Ireland, reach out to see how you can be involved in the Shared Island Clusters and Networks initiative, a collaboration led by @Inter_Trade, in partnership with @InvestNI and @Entirl, as part of the Shared Island Enterprise Scheme, funded by the Government of Ireland as part of the Shared Island Fund.   #Cluster #ClusterManager #AllIsland #SharedIsland #Collaboration

Do you want to grow your business, but are unsure how? Hear from one of our recent women's entrepreneurship 'WeGrow' participants, Jill O'Meara Photography, about her experience of the programme, and the impact that it's had on her business: "When I think back to that first weekend, I knew I wanted to grow but felt so unsure of how. I was tired of the rinse and repeat of doing business and ready for something different. The Growth Sprint delivered that and more. But honestly? The biggest surprise was the people. I came into this programme with no connections to businesswomen from Northern Ireland. That opportunity had simply never come my way. I'm leaving with friends I've genuinely gotten to know and respect, women I'll champion and who'll champion me right back. I feel like a whole different person and business owner than I was when I started this journey a few months ago. My business has grown. But more than that, I've grown as a business owner. More open, more confident, and now looking at new markets I wouldn't have considered before." If you want to step back, refocus, and build a clear strategy for your business growth like Jill, then the WeGrow programme is for you. Apply now: eu1.hubs.ly/H0zBnNb0 *Applications close Monday 30th November at 5pm. The WeGrow all-island programme is led by InterTradeIreland in partnership with @InvestNI and @Entirl, and is part of the Shared Island Enterprise Scheme, funded by the Government of Ireland's Shared Island Fund.
