Returning Home to Launch a New Venture? Back 4 Good is Here to Help
As part of our Summer Talent Drive, Back 4 Good – Your Future in Ireland has engaged with hundreds of returnees from across the globe who are eager to come home to Ireland and set up their own business, social enterprise, or invest in existing companies.

These talented professionals are seeking guidance on how to get started — including where to locate, which sectors to explore, how to access funding, and what supports are available. Most have built up significant seed capital while abroad and are now ready to put that to work at home.
Step-by-Step Support from Back 4 Good
At Back 4 Good, we assist returnees through each stage of the start-up process:
- Identifying viable sectors and regions across Ireland
- Navigating local and national funding supports
- Matching returnees with co-founders, mentors, or investment partners
- Connecting with Enterprise Ireland, LEOs, and other support bodies
- Providing introductions to key professionals including solicitors, accountants, and company formation agents
Government and Financial Supports
Returnees are encouraged to tap into Ireland’s robust enterprise ecosystem:
- Enterprise Ireland offers programmes for High Potential Start-Ups, co-investment options, and venture funding through its Growth Capital Team.
- Local Enterprise Offices (LEOs) provide a range of grants and incentives including:
