Almost 1.4 million euro in funding has been announced for the Transformative Dungarvan Digital Transformation Hub.
The Waterford town is one of 27 landmark regeneration projects nationwide to receive the Government Support.
Three town centre buildings are set to be provided with 90 co-working spaces, training, innovation and incubation space for up to 200 people.
Speaking to Beat News, Waterford Senator John Cummins explains more:
“This is a huge vote of confidence in Dungarvan. The project aims to revitalise Dungarvan town through the provision of 90 co-working spaces, the development of an incubation, innovation and commercialisation hub, the creation of a Digital Knowledge facility to support existing and new companies and the development of training workspaces."
"It is expected the facilities, which will be spread across three town centre buildings (Dungarvan Enterprise Centre and 18/19 O’Connell Street) will facilitate up to 200 people when fully operational. Waterford City and County Council has cost the project at approximately €1,743,582 with the Department of Rural and Community Affairs committing €1,394,822 to the project."
