Zones for Enterprising Intellect

A unique and innovative approach is being taken towards those skilled professionals who have found themselves without gainful employment. The intellectual enterprise zone (iez) initiative seeks to facilitate and host the intellectual talent within South Dublin County such that synergies of thought and action can be channelled into entrepreneurial areas.

In addition, the initiative is unique in terms of the cross agency approach being taken.  It incorporates the activities of South Dublin County Development Board, FAS, the Department of Social and Family Affairs, the Institute of Technology Tallaght, and South Dublin County Council.

The Intellectual Enterprise Zone will be profiled at an event during Innovation Week (October 14th - 20th, 2009).  Further details are available on www.southdublininnovates.ie

South Dublin County Council has launched the virtual presence of the Intellectual Enterprise Zone where you can find out more and get involved at their website www.iez.ie
