Technology boost for not-for-profits

Microsoft, Cisco and Symantec make €25m in technology available

A new programme for not-for-profit organisations has been launched by Martin Cullen T.D., Minister for Social and Family Affairs, that is aimed at allowing such organisations to gain the same benefits of efficiency and effectiveness from IT as their commercial counterparts.

Supported by industry giants Microsoft, Cisco and Symantec, the scheme is called ENCLUDEit. Run by ENCLUDE technology worth “up to EUR*25 million” has been made available. The release statement said that estimates of “up to 5,000 organisations can benefit from this new initiative and can receive technology with a cumulative value of up to EUR*25m per annum.”

The ENCLUDEit programme enables eligible organisations to gain access to donated technology, allowing them to choose from a wide range of products from Microsoft, Cisco and Symantec, in the same manner as education organisations through the CHEST programme.
