"Entrepreneurs Live!"
NovaUCD with the support of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Enterprise Board has now run 13 extremely popular "Entrepreneurs Live!" seminar series consisting of a total of 74 seminars.
The seminar series aims to promote a spirit of entrepreneurship among the academic, research and student population at UCD.
The seminars involved well known entrepreneurs who talk about their experiences of setting up and running their own business, emphasising the highs and lows on their entrepreneurial journey and highlighting the lessons they learnt along the way.
