The latest AIB Start-up Academy night was held in The Set Theatre, Kilkenny, on Thursday, September 18. The academy is a joint venture between The Irish Times and AIB to help people start business by providing information, networking opportunities and the chance to win a place on an intensive training course run by Irish Times Training.
These nights are the first stage in the process and connect aspiring entrepreneurs with like-minded people and the wider startup community. The event was hosted by Conor Pope and featured talks from two entrepreneurs Nicola Byrne (11890 founder) and Eunice Power (chef and food writer), as well as "pitches" by two local startups: Helen Kiely (Eat) and Eddie O’Dwyer (Kilkenny Activity Centre).
