Entries for the RACE-backed Start Your Own Business course are set to close on April 22. Delivered in partnership with Kildare County Council and Kildare Local Enterprise Office, the innovative six-week programme is designed to equip participants with the practical tools needed to turn an idea into a business.
The course combines on-campus learning with online sessions. Tailored specifically to the racing and equine industries, the programme covers every stage of the start-up journey from idea generation and market research to financial planning, compliance, and marketing. Participants will also gain insight into available grants, supports, and enterprise resources, helping them build a clear pathway from concept to launch.
The programme is fully funded and open to anyone aged 16 or over. No formal qualifications are required but places are limited and offered on a first-come-first-served basis. Find further information and apply here: https://racingacademy.ie/cms/start-your-own-business/.
