New partnership helps Irish SMEs grow while encouraging entrepreneurs to keep their headquarters in Ireland.


At Guaranteed Irish, we understand that scaling a business can be a turning point — often one where companies look abroad for expansion. However, through a new strategic partnership with Euronext Dublin, we’re encouraging entrepreneurs or small to medium-sized businesses to ‘Scale to Stay’. By providing access to capital and business support through this initiative, the aim is to help companies grow while retaining their headquarters in Ireland.

Strengthening Ireland’s economy

The ‘Scale to Stay’ initiative is about more than just growth; it’s about commitment to the Irish economy. At a time when international uncertainty is rising, this partnership supports homegrown and international businesses in building strong roots here. Ireland is uniquely positioned as a boutique investment destination, and we want to see more companies choosing to invest in and list from Ireland.

Now is the time to future-proof your
business model and ensure that
Ireland remains part of your story.

Support beyond capital

While access to capital markets via Euronext is a cornerstone of this initiative, it’s also about fostering resilience in Irish business. Guaranteed Irish continues to champion companies that create quality jobs, support local communities and keep supply chains within Ireland. The ‘Scale to Stay’ campaign further aligns with our core mission of sustainability and long-term value for both business owners and the economy.

A call to entrepreneurs

As businesses expand into global markets, we’re urging Irish entrepreneurs to maintain their local presence. Now is the time to future-proof your business model and ensure that Ireland remains part of your story. With the right supports in place and the correct environment created by government – showing businesses here, you can scale — and stay.
