Following a call from Minister for Finance Michael Noonan for public submissions on ways the Government could help ignite and support entrepreneurial activity, a new organisation called the Startup Leaders Group put in a suggestion that demands serious consideration. Formed in February at the behest of Dublin commissioner for start-ups Niamh Bushnell, the group comprises about 40 individuals, who are all involved with start-ups. Some are entrepreneurs and some investors, while others come from a wide range of industry groups, accelerators, incubators, policy organisations and so on.
