We were delighted to recently have Paul McCabe give a very inspiring talk to our founders in IGNITE this week. Paul is CEO at J1Accom.Com,  FortuneFavours.ie and also owns and runs J.Dalys's Pub and guesthouse in Ballydehob.

"Whether you're standing over a free in a Munster final or pitching your start-up to investors, you're exposed"

We spoke with Isabelle about joining the IGNITE programme and her mission to improve the IUD experience through her start-up, Elithiya.

“The real value of IGNITE is in the support you get to refine your thinking. You start with an idea, but it’s only through listening, testing, and being challenged that you start to see what it could really become.”

IGNITE is the place to turn that thought into something real. Just ask Reece Hogan, founder of a.chara and one of our newest IGNITE entrepreneurs. We are now open for applications for our July 2025 start.

"We didn’t want to take the conventional PAYE route after graduation"

Starting a business is tough, but you don’t have to do it alone...

Every founder’s journey is different, but one thing remains the same: IGNITE helps you get further, faster.
