Evaluation of Enterprise Supports for Start-Ups and Entrepreneurship

Since 2012, Forfás has undertaken a detailed programme of evaluations of supports provided by the Enterprise Agencies in Ireland. These evaluations are structured under the themes of entrepreneurship and start-up supports; research, development and innovation; and business development and have been undertaken in line with the Forfás evaluation framework, which is based on international best practice.

This suite of evaluations covers programmes offered by Enterprise Ireland and by the City and County Enterprise Boards to entrepreneurs and start-up companies.
