It has been an extraordinarily challenging 18 months for businesses and social enterprises in Counties Roscommon, Mayo and Sligo. As we emerge and businesses struggle to make sense of a post-Covid and Brexit environment, REBOOT can help.
REBOOT training and networking will prioritise resiliency, agility, cost management, innovation, health and safety and sales. All critically important to business.
REBOOT is a South West Mayo Development Company, LEADER initiative aimed at businesses and social enterprises in Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo.
Aim of the REBOOT Programme:
Reboot is a co-operative collaboration designed to assist the recovery of rural businesses and social enterprises in the aftermath of the Covid19 pandemic and Brexit economic disruption. Reboot will provide a programme of FREE tailored training, skills development, expert 1:1s and networking opportunities in Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo.
Reboot has identified 3 critical areas to assist businesses/social enterprises/community groups post C19:
- Online Marketing, e-commerce and e-marketing supports
- Adapting your business for future opportunities and challenges
- Minimising risks and optimising Health & Safety
Over the course of the next 18 months, organisations can access tailored training courses, get expert advice and tips on a 1:1 basis, and have the opportunity to network with their peers at organised events where they can share experiences and address challenges they face.
