BTWEA

About

Galway City Partnership provides free, confidential support for people interested in exploring or starting a business or becoming self – employed.
Through the SICAP Self – Employment Supports, we work to ensure inclusive access to enterprise opportunities, supporting individuals at all stages of their journey — from developing an idea to launching and sustaining a business in the first 2 years.

Initial consultations are open to everyone, while mentoring, enterprise planning, registration supports and BTWEA application supports as part of the SICAP are targeted supports in collaboration with the Department of Social Protection and Pobal.
