In February 2024, the Irish Government announced €800m of funding for Shared Island priorities, including €30m towards the establishment of a new Shared Island Enterprise Scheme developed by InterTradeIreland, Invest Northern Ireland and Enterprise Ireland. An element of this Scheme is to develop an all-island cluster and network support.
As part of this initiative, InterTradeIreland, in partnership with Enterprise Ireland and Invest Northern Ireland, wishes to appoint a suitably qualified service provider to undertake a feasibility study. The appointed service provider will conduct the study and deliver a comprehensive, evidence-based report that identifies cluster and network support programmes that could realistically be delivered as part of the Shared Island Enterprise Scheme.
The research report will be shared with key stakeholders in Ireland and Northern Ireland, including the Department for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (DETE) and the Department for the Economy (DfE), policy makers and economic development bodies.
