Enactus Social Entrepreneurship

We believe that we can all make an impact and here at Enactus UL we work as a team, combining all of our skills and talents to create projects that are making a difference. Each year we compete against 9 other colleges in Ireland at the National Competition. We placed second in the country in 2019 and in 2020, making us one of the top competitors in Ireland. In May of 2021 we became National Competition winners, finally earning the very well deserved title. We were delighted to participate in the Enactus World Cup in October 2021, where we went head to head with other National Competition winners from around the world!
