What makes a strong application to Social Entrepreneurs Ireland?

You don't need all the answers to apply. Most of our entrepreneurs start with a problem they can’t ignore and a passion to fix it.

Whether you are in the early stages of shaping an idea or have a solution already being tested in the real world, we want to hear from you.

What we look for:
- Clear understanding of a social or environmental problem.
- An idea that is early and evolving OR a solution ready to grow.
- Unique insight into the issue you are tackling.
- A willingness to learn, adapt, and commit to the journey.

At Social Entrepreneurs Ireland, we back the person as much as the project/organisation. Make sure your application shows us who you are!

Deadline: Monday 20th April

Who should apply to Social Entrepreneurs Ireland?

Ultimately, anyone with an idea to solve a social or environmental problem that they have a unique understanding of, and the commitment to see it through.

Social entrepreneurs come from every walk of life: different ages, communities, professions, and experiences. What connects them is that when they notice something that isn’t working, they take action to change it.

Our two flagship programmes are open for applications now until April 20th:
- Ideas Academy: For early-stage ideas.
- Impact Programme: For solutions ready to scale.

We want to help you take the next step, alongside a like-minded community and with support at every stage, from idea to impact.
