The Accelerate Green programme started in March 2022, when eight Irish companies were selected for the programme. Bord na Móna also launched a six-week pre-accelerator later that year to help nine climate-focused scale-ups sharpen their business ideas. Eight more companies were selected for the accelerator in February 2023.

Joining Pat this morning live from Tullamore with thanks to Bord Na Mona was Sharon Doyle Head of HR & Corporate Affairs.
