The SLNIW project is for entrepreneurs and owner/managers
of Small to Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs) and microenterprises
in South East Ireland and West Wales. The project aims
to increase the skill sets of these entrepreneurs by facilitating
knowledge transfer between participants within networks:
between Waterford Institute of Technology and Aberystwyth
University and network participants; and between leading
experts and network participants. The network participants will learn through being exposed
to a range of international expertise over the course
of the project. They will learn how to analyse their company
needs, direct their own learning within the network, and
learn how to maximise the benefits of their network involvement
in order to increase the competitiveness of their organisation
in addressing and overcoming any challenges they face. Through participant’s involvement with the network,
the SLNIW project seeks to foster a sense of innovation
and creativity. The SLNIW project aims to promote sustainability
in the networks created to provide lasting benefits to
the participants involved. |

Having been equipped with the ability to perform comprehensive
skills needs analysis, the SLNIW participants will have the
capability to determine what they need to improve their respective
businesses. Participants will be allowing themselves access
to the problem solving skills of the other members of the network
and knowledge will be shared to address the issues that arise
for them. Ultimately, the objective of the SLNIW
project is to create more competitive regional economies in
south east Ireland and west Wales by focusing on the development
of SMEs and micro-enterprises in these areas in an innovative
and creative way.
