National Women's Enterprise Day 2026 - Monaghan

What to Expect

National Women’s Enterprise Day is the annual date on which the Local Enterprise Office network puts on events around the country for women running or starting a business, and Monaghan County Council has it on its own events calendar for Thursday 15 October 2026, listed from 9am to 5pm. The council calendar carries the date and times but not yet the venue, speakers or booking arrangements, so treat the specifics as still to be published.

What the day usually consists of, both nationally and in Monaghan, is a mix of keynote speakers, panel discussions with women who have built businesses locally, practical clinics on finance and supports, and structured networking. In Monaghan it is run through Local Enterprise Office Monaghan, which sits within the county council, and it tends to be pitched at both established owner-managers and people at the earlier stage of testing an idea. Places are usually limited and go through a booking link that opens a few weeks beforehand. If you want the confirmed venue, programme and cost, contact Local Enterprise Office Monaghan on 047 71818 or info@leo.monaghancoco.ie, or watch the council’s events page as the date approaches.

Getting There
