We offer a range of supports for start-up projects that are considered High Potential Start-Up (HPSU) companies. Funding available to HPSUs is offered in three ways. Grant funding is available to help entrepreneurs build an investor-ready business plan. Once a HPSU has developed a sound business plan and identified investors, you can apply to the Innovative HPSU Fund for an Enterprise Ireland equity investment. Having secured the necessary investment to start the business, further supports are available to assist in the implementation of key aspects of your plan. Browse our full range of HPSU financial supports and programmes below.
HPSU clients of Enterprise Ireland are assigned a Development Adviser which is a requirement for accessing funding supports. If you are not currently a client of Enterprise Ireland and want to learn more about qualifying as a HPSU or to arrange a meeting with our Start-Up Team, please go to our Start a Business Section.
