About Student Enterprise
Hi Everyone & Welcome to the Student Enterprise Website.
Student Enterprise is an initiative of the Regional Development Centre. The RDC supports the formation & growth of new technology focused ventures as well as the training & development of early stage entrepreneurs. Click here to visit the Regional Development Centre website.
StudentEnterprise@DkIT has been established to promote, develop and sustain enterprise among students in DKIT. We are committed to helping students find out more about enterprise and to encourage participation. Throughout the college year we will be holding many events and competitions on and off campus to facilitate this task. So come on, sign up and join in.
