CIME
Creativity and Innovation in Micro Enterprise
Aims & Objectives
The overall aim of the CIME project is to analyse, develop and deliver innovative/creativity techniques, through dedicated programmes involving specialists, into the micro-enterprise and SME sectors in the Ireland-Wales INTERREG cross-border area.
The project is based on the principle that by cultivating creativity, the micro-enterprise sector will be mobilised, incentivised and empowered to innovate. This initiative will provide business leaders with new approaches to developing their strategy right across their business, conducted in an atmosphere that enables space and time to learn, think, act and execute.
