AIB and TU Dublin Entrepreneurship for People with Disabilities Programme. 

Started in 2021, this programme has been successfully rolled out across four iterations. This initiative is hosted and delivered online by TU Dublin through its Continuing Professional Development programme. It is open to anyone who identifies as having a disability and wishes to start their own business. The course is oversubscribed each year and is capped to 20 places to ensure that students receive one-to-one support and mentorship (through the Local Enterprise Office) to realise their entrepreneurial ambitions. It is free to those accepted to the programme thanks to the funding provided by AIB (from 2022-2024).  This initiative was co-founded and is proudly supported by the Open Doors Initiative.
