Gaeltacht businesses given Údarás lifeline
Údarás na Gaeltachta has approved over €7.4m in vital Covid-19 supports to assist Gaeltacht businesses still dealing with the challenges created by the pandemic.
To date over 435 Gaeltacht companies have benefited from various Údarás Covid-19 support schemes to ensure that they have the appropriate advice and plan in place to address difficulties, to ensure cash flow and to assist them in accessing global sales markets online.
Údarás na Gaeltachta, in conjunction with Enterprise Ireland, has approved €6.4m in support funding to businesses located in the Gaeltacht to assist them with sustaining business, training, research and financial planning.
As a result of the longstanding memorandum of understanding between Údarás and Enterprise Ireland, Gaeltacht businesses employing ten or more people and exporting products and services can avail of Enterprise Ireland support schemes in a similar manner to other businesses throughout the country.
