Your Business Day 2.0 returns to the Science Gallery on 9 December 2011
Celtar are proud to be project managing the second Your Business Day event on Friday, 9th of December 2011 in the Science Gallery, Pearse Street.
” We are delighted to be part of this major initiative from Greg Swift, Liam Barry and the team at DCEB” says Billy Linehan of Celtar, “already seeing the lineup it has been called the small business version of the Dublin Web Summit!”
Dublin City Enterprise Board (DCEB) the leading enterprise support agency for Dublin City are hosting the event for the second year.
The event is aimed at supporting small business in Dublin City, and will be of interest to those in business AND individuals starting up in business or thinking about starting a business.
Amongst other things the day will involve a series of talks from successful clients of DCEB, seminars and several development agencies are taking stands at the event. There will also be a Tweet and Meet zone for networking and making connections.
A key feature of the day will be free business mentoring on the day to individuals attending the event, (we had over 250 attendees last year).
25 business mentors from a variety of business backgrounds will be available all day to answer your questions. The mentor slots start from 0900 and end at 1600.
