We are pleased to announce the launch of the Euronext Access market in Dublin, aimed at supporting the growth of Irish scale-ups and SMEs. This market will provide a simplified and flexible listing process to enhance visibility and attract investors for Irish businesses.
Euronext Access Dublin, a simplified path for Irish scale-ups and SMEs to go public
With over 170 companies listed and a combined market value of €12 billion, Euronext Access provides an ideal platform for growing scale-ups and SMEs looking to raise capital and increase their global profile.
Offering a simplified and flexible listing process, Euronext Access is a straightforward entry into the public market, especially for companies not yet eligible for Euronext's regulated markets or Euronext Growth (see below ‘Eligibility criteria tab’). This listing venue, with less stringent admission requirements, opens valuable opportunities to secure financing and build market credibility.
By joining this platform, companies gain the reputational advantages of being publicly traded while positioning themselves for future growth.
With this market, Euronext Dublin supports Irish scale-ups and SMEs in navigating the financial landscape, providing not only vital access to capital but also a genuine path to more advanced markets, including Euronext Access+ and Euronext Growth.
Some of the key benefits include:
- Alternative funding: Ideal for capital raises under €10 million, attracting retail and institutional investors.
- Employee shareholders: Maintain a trading market for staff and implement attractive Save-As-You-Earn (SAYE) schemes.
- Simplified access: Benefit from structured trading opportunities with twice-daily auctions.
- Family businesses: Support succession planning with low liquidity requirements.
- Springboard potential: Currency for acquisitions and suitable for companies aiming to raise funds at a later stage.
