INSPIRING ENTREPRENEURS TALKS

What it is: A series of engaging talks on campus where you can hear directly from successful UCC alumni, start-up founders, and top business leaders from a range of industries and backgrounds.

What happens: These talks give you the chance to learn from real-life entrepreneurial journeys, hear insights into starting and growing a business, and get inspired by people who were once in your shoes.

Why it’s useful: You’ll gain fresh ideas, motivation, and practical tips — whether you're just curious about entrepreneurship or actively working on a start-up. It’s also a great opportunity to connect with speakers and other like-minded students.

Who it’s for:

  • Students from any discipline who want to explore entrepreneurship

  • Staff can request a speaker for their class by emailing ignite@ucc.ie

When & How to Join: The next round of INSPIRING ENTREPRENEURS TALKS will take place on the UCC campus in Autumn 2024. Stay tuned through the student newsletter or IGNITE channels for details.
