Donegal County Council are hosting the Donegal Connect event online on October 8th. The day will involve 3 sessions, each looking at a different aspect of what Donegal has to offer its diaspora, be that moving to Donegal, its cultural offering or in this case, showcasing the Innovation currently taking place in Donegal.
Innovation is happening in Donegal, it’s happening within towns and villages and even remote islands off the county coastline. People and companies are embracing the opportunities that are available and developing new and improved services and products that are being traded internationally. The event will showcase some of the innovation going on in the county celebrating Donegal as a great place to live, work and to establish a business. At these challenging times we want the world to know that Donegal is open for business and has a vibrant ecosystem to help our companies to thrive.
