Priority 4: Engage Beyond the University

CEBII's engagement with policy, practice, and community is not a by-product of its research; it is integral to its purpose. This priority is about building sustained, cumulative influence with the people and institutions that shape the support for entrepreneurship in Ireland.

We respond to national policy consultations, host and co-host public-facing events that bring research to non-academic audiences, and develop partnerships with enterprise agencies, local authorities, community organisations, and companies. The goal is not one-off visibility but genuine, ongoing relationships and, from 2028, a growing European profile through networks and funding calls aligned with CEBII's work.
