Aisling is Manager of ArcLabs Research and Innovation Centre, Waterford Institute of Technology’s business incubator, supporting entrepreneurship in the South East of Ireland from their sites in Waterford and Kilkenny.
Aisling has over 10 years experience working across various research and innovation roles, completing her PhD in 2016 in entrepreneurship at Waterford Institute of Technology. Her PhD focussed on the area of entrepreneurship and networks, with specific interest in the gender dimension of network development. Enter Network Ireland! Aisling has presented her research internationally, across Ireland, the UK, Europe and the US.
Aisling is President of Network Ireland for 2021 and loves the opportunity that Network affords for members to grow their Network nationally via visiting other branch events, more apt than ever now that all events are taking place virtually – in one week, you could attend events in Galway, West Cork, Waterford or Kildare without leaving your house!
Aisling was President of the Network Ireland Waterford branch for two years (2017 and 2018) and remains an active member of the committee. She is thrilled to be involved with Network Ireland and is passionate about the Network ethos: to drive the personal and professional development of women.
Aisling thrives on working with entrepreneurs and is driven to participate in fostering a sustainable economy in Waterford and the South East region of Ireland. To get in contact with Aisling, please email: amoneill@wit.ie.
