The ultra-modern workspace will offer the ultimate in connectivity for North Tipp and Offaly. 

The the new digital hub 'Roscrea Enterprise and Community Hub' (REACH) located adjacent to the Roscrea Town Centre complex is nearing completion and is already a striking new piece of modern architecture in the heart of the heritage town.

The hub will provide the most up to date office facilities in the country and will revolutionise the ability to work in the centre of Roscrea. The project is funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development under the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund and Tipperary County Council.

The hub will provide office space for people to work in Roscrea, enabling employees to work remotely instead of commuting to larger urban centres. The facility will also have education and training elements.

The hub will have 45 work stations supporting up to 116 jobs, as well as 16 work studios (own-door offices) that will support a further 48-64 jobs. There will also be provision of shared services to all resident businesses.
