Your Development Adviser will guide/advise you on how to put together a development plan and application to Enterprise Ireland for funding. In the case of an R&D application, assistance may be given for the preparation of the R&D plan.

Following receipt of your application, an Enterprise Ireland appointed assessor will meet your team to evaluate your proposal and proposed expenditure.

Enterprise Ireland will work with you to carry out an appropriate level of due diligence on your proposal. This will typically include a commercial and financial assessment, market analysis, clarification on any equity or legal issues (where relevant) and third party validations.

When this is complete, an investment proposal will be prepared for consideration by a decision-making committee.

Following a successful approval, a formal letter of offer will be issued detailing the associated terms and conditions and outlining how payment will be made.
