What is
an Insight Exchange Session?
|
|
Insight Exchanges are Bi-monthly roundtable discussions about the drivers
of growth with Entrepreneur Champions who will share their
practical experiences. These bi-monthly interactive sessions
have proven very popular with the Community to date. We
have successfully held a number of Insight Exchange covering topics of value and
interest to the Entrepreneurs such as "Route to Market",
"Managing your processes to increase Revenue" and "Structuring your Management
team for getting funded". The Members have, to an extent
designed the programme according to their needs which pinpoints the knowledge and
experience they need in order to accelerate their business.
Our next Insight Exchange will be covering the topic of
Intellectual Property and How to Manage it.
Is Your company using it's Intellectual Property effectively
for strategic business needs?
To remain competitive in today's business environment,
companies need to explore new ways to use their Intellectual Property to advance
their strategic business position. At the next Insight
Exchange Session we will discuss Intellectual Property as
the new asset class and the financing vehicles available for
effectively packaging Intellectual Property to generate revenue. The
speakers will address the structures being employed by sophisticated companies, the
accompanying risks and benefits, as well as provide a checklist to help answer the
question, "Will this work for me?"
You will shortly receive an invitation to this event. It will be
held in Dublin, Cork and Galway.

At the recent Excellerator launch, in the Four Seasons Hotel, Enda Kelly Partner, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Excellerator Team said, “Despite the slowdown in the global economy, many entrepreneurs need to look beyond their domestic market to fuel growth.
There are vast experiences that can be shared among Irish entrepreneurs across many sectors, in relation to rolling-out products/services in international markets.
By simply sharing this ‘hands-on’ knowledge companies can gain local market intelligence and hence drive capital gain and company valuation. The Excellerator Community is one such tool used by companies to develop their strategies…” |
