Private-sector led organisation, specifically set up to identify, build & grow knowledge intensive companies
About us
AxisBIC (formerly CorkBIC) is an organisation set up over 35 years ago to identify and build knowledge intensive companies based on promising technology and capable innovative people. It plays a hands-on role helping entrepreneurs navigate the minefield of raising finance and sorting out business propositions. Every year, AxisBIC identifies, selects and develops about 12 higher potential startups per year and works as a hands-on catalyst or project developer in infrastructure gap initiatives. At any one time, there would be 40 to 50 companies or projects in the pipeline, ranging from new start-ups to existing companies planning to scale. Over the past 35 years the organisation has put more than 500 start-ups through the system, many of whom come back and re-engage. More than eight out of ten start-ups who work with AxisBIC through this process survive after five years – currently (and over 25 years) an 85% survival rate after 5 years, far outstripping the international average of 50%.

Prep4Seed 2025 Kicks Off in Cork! 🚀 The AxisBIC team was delighted to facilitate the launch of the #Prep4Seed Programme in Cork with the first of five Masterclasses: Market Planning & Business Validation, delivered our colleague by Majella Murphy from Furthr on behalf of Enterprise Ireland. Our cohort of founders delved into key investor-readiness topics, including Investor Criteria, Product-Market Fit, Customer Profile, Value Proposition, and Business Model Environment. With plenty of interactive discussions, participants found the session valuable not only as a solid foundation to the programme in shaping their growth strategies. Next up we have 1-2-1 mentoring sessions to help apply these insights, followed by our next Masterclass: Financial Modeling, delivered by our colleagues at WestBIC. Exciting times ahead! #Prep4Seed #InvestorReadiness #Startups #AxisBIC #EnterpriseIreland Enterprise Ireland | Furthr | WestBIC | Propelor BIC | Liltoda | Voltflo | SomaTech Ltd | Solas Sodas | Tao Climate™ - Decarbonising Aviation | Shōden | Blip Payments Ltd | Xtricate Medical | Chapter Technology Limited | Nibbed Cacao

Humbled by the extraordinary ladies I have had the privilege to learn from. Learning goes both ways. Mentoring, to me, means empowering other women/men to realise their own potential by helping them see things that they inherently know deep down inside but often don’t have the courage to see. #gratitude #internationalwomensday #friendship #empower

Last week's meeting with Richard Branson at TECHARENA Stockholm was a full circle moment and powerful reminder of Coroflo's evolution. Eight years ago, our victory in the Virgin Media Business VOOM competition earned us a meeting where we presented our initial (quite rudimentary) prototype. To return and demonstrate the sleek, finalised Coro, just before launch, was a truly exciting experience. It highlights the incredible transformation achieved through the hard work of our team and the unwavering support of our investors and community.
