Ireland’s largest business improvement district, Sandyford Business District, is to host a retail summit for businesses on 25 September.
Hundreds of retailers are expected to join the summit, which is focused on ‘fuelling business ambition’.
‘Alleviate Pressures’
“‘The Retail Support Summit 2024: Unlocking Free Supports and Grants for Your Business’ will empower businesses with the knowledge and resources required to succeed,” said Ger Corbett, CEO of Sandyford Business District.
“In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, navigating business grants and subsidies can be challenging. That’s why Sandyford Business District and Positive Retail Ireland are collaborating on this event, to deliver important insights for businesses which have the potential to alleviate pressures and fuel ambition.”
Grant Support Process
The summit will provide attendees with upskilling and business advice and networking opportunities, and it aims to ‘demystify’ the grant support process.
Delegates can expect to hear from speakers from the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, Retail Ireland Skillnet, Ibec, and AIB Merchant Services.
Business Growth
Each session is curated to provide retailers with direct access to expert insights and resources, to help them drive business growth and achieve success.
The retail summit will take place at Dynamic Space in Stillorgan Business Park from 10.30 to 14.00, and it is free to attend.
