Our Training and Promotion for Business Districts

The goal of a ‘Digital First Community’ is to put a virtual hurley in the hands of localities so that they can use digital to unite to fight for investment, remote workers, home buyers, shoppers and visitors as a team with their local Hub as their rallying point and their smartphone as their ally.

The projection of our work in Dun Laoghaire is our monthly Dun Laoghaire Town Chronicle which provides the rallying point and showcase for the town and its community of small businesses and social enterprises.

Our national Digital First Day


Our Connected Hubs Showcase Day

In April 2023 we delivered the inaugural national Connected Hubs Showcase Day. 62 hubs across the country staged events highlighting the benefits of hubs to their local business and social communities. The implementation and rollout of the national event was delivered by the team at DigitalHQ using the model we developed for Ireland’s inaugural Digital First Day.
