Free ‘Back for Business’ programme is seeking applications from Longford

Applications are now open for the latest cycle of a free government programme that helps returned or returning emigrants start and develop businesses in Ireland.


Funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs, Back for Business was created to foster and support entrepreneurial activity among emigrants returning to live in Ireland.


Back for Business is for those who have returned — or are considering returning — to Ireland and plan to start a business here. This is the seventh year of the programme and there are up to 50 places available.


Applications are invited from those who have recently returned to Longford or are still living abroad but thinking of returning to Co. Longford in the near future.

Back for Business 7 will run from February to June 2024. There is no charge for those selected to participate and the closing date for submitting completed applications is 5pm on Monday, January 15, 2024.
Those interested can register their interest in receiving an application form on www.backforbusiness.com
