The Clermont Enterprise Hub at Rathnew is to benefit from government funding.

The hub in North Wicklow is among 47 projects nationwide that have been approved for grant support under this government scheme.

The funding to be invested at Clermont is one of 15 projects to receive grants worth up to 200,000 euro.

The scheme is aligned to the objectives of the Regional Enterprise Plan that was launched in Wicklow earlier this year.

Supporting content creation is part of the hub’s strategy, with a particular focus on businesses servicing productions happening in Ashford and Ardmore Studios in Bray.
