The Irish Social Finance Eco-system is poised to introduce its first new financial product in over 20 years, following research undertaken by Rethink Ireland, Community Finance Ireland, and Dublin City University, in association with the Irish Social Enterprise Network.

The research project has been supported by the European Commission via the EaSI Technical Assistance for Social Finance programme.

Through a mix of repayable loans, non-repayable loans and crucially, non-financial support, the product is primarily targeting first time borrowers from the social enterprise and community space.

For more detail and how to register for a number of upcoming info sessions, commencing from next Wednesday in Dublin (and nationwide onwards) at 7.30pm, visit:
