Pictured above are the IT Sligo student team who managed the recent VERY BIG Christmas Concert at IT Sligo. Cait Keaveney and Orla Mongey are both completing a year’s graduate programme on Accelerating Campus Entrepreneurship (ACE) and Catherine Young (Centre) is completing a Masters Programme on the creative industry.
“Leading the Event Management Team for the Concert was fantastic experience and really helped build my organisational skills”, commented Catherine.
Both Cait and Orla work with IT Sligo students to encourage them to consider entrepreneurial careers.
“Taking a lead role in organising a fundraiser is an excellent example of entrepreneurial activity – which any student can undertake along with their studies,” Orla said.
