European markets represent significant diversification opportunities for Irish companies. As Ireland prepares to celebrate 50 years since joining the EEC, the forerunner to the EU, this webinar outlines what the EU can do for Irish SMEs. This virtual event, which is the opening seminar of the 2022 Europe is our Future Series co-organised by the IIEA and Enterprise Ireland, provides an overview of the benefits of trading and doing business in the EU Single Market and will discuss the funding opportunities the EU provides for Irish SMEs.

The seminar was chaired by Joe Lynam, Business Editor at Newstalk.
