START, FINANCE AND SUSTAIN A SMALL BUSINESS
There is no doubt the world’s economy has gone through an unprecedented upheaval in the last couple of years and the Irish economy has certainly felt the knock-on effects of this. Job losses, pay cuts, redundancies and cutbacks have affected many of us. However, as certain as we are in an economic downturn at the moment, the economy will bounce back. It always does. Some would argue that there are already signs of green shoots emerging, with the bottoming out of the property market coming and regular jobs announcements coming from multinationals based in Ireland.

This means many superb business opportunities are just around the corner. The development of new businesses is key to the country’s efforts to develop organically, and getting these companies to export their goods and services is essential to pulling Ireland out of recession and into a sustainable period of economic growth and job creation.

Following on from the inaugural Out On Your Own Conference in October 2009, The Sunday Business Post is delighted to announce that we are organising two Out On Your Own Conferences for 2010, one on October 20 in the RDS in Dublin and one in UCC in Cork on October 12.

Last year’s Dublin event was a huge success,  sponsored by Enterprise Ireland  and HALO Business Angels Network, with more than 560 delegates in attendance and the maximum of 20 exhibition stands. We aim to grow these conferences significantly this year by again having the best high-profile inspirational speakers, leading entrepreneurs and distinguished Sunday Business Post journalists, such as Richard Curran, presenter of Dragons’  Den, with many interactive discussions and networking opportunities planned for this year’s events.

Book your sponsorship or exhibition package now to avoid disappointment.
