To drive, innovation and entrepreneurship across HEIs, we are conducting some market research —and we'd like your input!

I’m inviting you to take part in a brief survey designed to explore the needs, challenges, and opportunities for developing entrepreneurship within HEIs.

Your insights as a staff member will be invaluable in helping shape effective strategies, resources, and support systems to nurture entrepreneurial thinking and activity across institutions.

The survey takes just 5–7 minutes to complete and includes a mix of multiple-choice, ranking, and open-ended questions. Rest assured, your responses will remain confidential and be used solely for research purposes as part of this project.

At the end, you’ll have the option to receive a copy of the survey findings—if you choose to share your name and email address, which will be used only for this purpose.

Your input is greatly appreciated and will play a meaningful role in advancing entrepreneurship within higher education.

For any queries, please contact me at helen.fullen@alinea.ie Thank you in advance for your time.
