Assessing the uptake and efficacy of the Irish Government's COVID-19 response for startups

Covid-19 Startup Supports - Pulse Survey April 2020

*For a faster & better user experience please complete this on your desktop rather than mobile.*

In recent weeks, the Irish Government has introduced supports to help limit the impact of Covid on the business community. 

Scale Ireland wants to find out whether these supports are well-tailored to Ireland’s startups and scale-ups, and whether additional schemes are required, or if processes need to be accelerated.

Insights gathered from this survey will be used to highlight what is or is not working well, and to inform a proposal to government about how startups and scale-ups can best be supported. 

About the survey: it will take about 5-10 mins to fill out. The first 7 questions are about your startup pre-Covid, the second 7 questions are about your experience accessing Covid-19 business supports. We will not be publishing the names or details of any respondents.
