The aim of the AIB Mentoring Access Initiative is to reach diverse women in SMEs across Ireland, recognise their talent and potential, and help them to develop as leaders and grow their businesses. Applications are sought from women SME leaders, in particular women from a diverse background, who may not have had an opportunity like this up to now due to factors such as socio-economic background gender, disability, or ethnicity.
Women leaders interested in applying can do so by completing the application form attached and returning it to sarah.l.boylan@aib.ie by close of business 15th October 2025.
Successful applicants will partake in the year-long mentoring programme where they will have a mentoring partner, provided by AIB, access to the resources of the IMI, and the opportunity to build a network with other mentors and mentees.
