Start your own Business!
If you want to be independent, be your own boss. If you have a business idea then start your own small business in the Business Incubation Centre in Tallaght. It will provide you with the facilities to test your idea without locking yourself into long leases, high overheads, rates, security costs, office facilities, electricity and the usual frustrating form filling associated with meeting “criteria” when trying to avail of the facilities provided by officialdom.
If your idea works – excellent but if it is not a “success” you have the satisfaction of at least trying and can move on without breaking the bank. You have kept your costs to a minimum and you are not locked into a long term agreement. You will not have “failed, instead you will have gained valuable experience.
