I am pictured here with Pat Rabbitte TD, Minister for Communications at the launch of the National Digital Strategy.
The first phase of the National Digital Strategy, is focussed on stimulating the indigenous economy by helping small Irish business to expand on-line; providing support in preparing the next generation for future jobs; and making sure everyone in society benefits from digital.
It includes a Trade On-Line Voucher Scheme to encourage small and medium enterprises to increase their online trading presence. The vouchers will put up to €2500 directly into the hands of 2000 small businesses to help them prioritise digital, get the resources, training and expertise needed to develop an online trading presence.
Firms can avail of the vouchers once they match the funding provided. The voucher scheme will be managed by local enterprise offices and will be trailed in Dublin initially.
