All under the age of 30, local business owners and new start-ups went head-to-head with other winners from the region for a chance to win a place at the national final in Dublin this December, in a competition co-ordinated by the Local Enterprise Office. Launched by the Government earlier this year, Ireland’s Best Young Entrepreneur competition is an integral part of the Action Plan for Jobs 2014 and is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through the 31 Local Enterprise Offices around the country (www.ibye.ie)
