The Startup Gathering was launched on March 4th in Bank of Ireland’s brand new branch in Grand Canal Docks in Dublin 2. The new branch, with its sleek design and highly networked infrastructure was the perfect backdrop to the the main event itself.<\/p>\n

The idea behind the Startup Gathering is that it will be a national week of over 50 events held in five cities promoting entrepreneurship and showcasing Ireland\u2019s startup sector. The Startup Gathering’s call to action is for\u00a0Ireland\u2019s startup sector to come together and create and host events to coincide with the Startup Gathering\u2019s week of activities beginning October 5th.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Eoin<\/a>Eoin Costello, Co-Founder, Startup Ireland, said: \u201cThe future growth of Ireland\u2019s economy in terms of innovation and jobs is closely linked to the performance of Ireland\u2019s startup sector, and we need far more people creating high impact start-ups here.\u00a0Our goal with The Startup Gathering is to encourage more of our population to consider entrepreneurship as a real career choice and make the move on startup ideas they have. In support of Minister Bruton\u2019s goal of making Ireland a country where great ideas can be transformed into excellent businesses and new jobs, our ultimate ambition is to use the Startup Gathering as a key pivot towards making Ireland a global startup hub by 2020\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
