Enterprise Ireland’s relaunch of the competitive Going Global Fund will take place at the end of May. The aim of the Going Global Fund is to assist domestically focused companies to explore, validate and internationalise business opportunities in a new market as well as for companies that are introducing a new service and/or product to an existing market. The fund is also designed for companies to examine possibilities for web-enabling its service offer for export markets and to undertake overseas market research.
