The sod has been turned on a new 3 million euro Content Creation Enterprise Hub at the Wicklow County Campus.

The base at Clermont in Rathnew will provide 10,000 square feet of private and co-working spaces and aims to boost job creation in the sector.

Works which are due to finish by the middle of 2022, will include the alteration and refurbishment of the courtyard cottages and their conversion to office use. Supporting content creation will be part of the hub’s strategy, with a particular focus on businesses servicing productions happening in Ashford and Ardmore Studios.
