Entrepreneurial Ambassador Programme

The TU Dublin GROWTHhub Entrepreneurial Ambassador Programme engages successful entrepreneurial leaders of varying backgrounds but a common motivation to support the entrepreneurial ambitions of our students and staff. They offer students, researchers, and staff a direct connection to the realities of entrepreneurial life and advice to mobilise their entrepreneurial ambitions and ventures. Together they form a network that aims to provide students and staff across the University with rapid access to a broad and deep base of knowledge, experience, and contacts.

Each Entrepreneurial Ambassador offers unique expertise, a willingness to share their experience, and all have a passion for working with our students and staff.
