=== Rubicon Centre ===
The Rubicon Centre is a business incubation centre and is located on campus at CIT. Home to over 40 knowledge-based start-up companies, the centre is jointly financed by CIT & Enterprise Ireland. Clients based at the Rubicon are at different stages of development, from concept stage to completing their first customer orders. In 2007, a second incubation facility was opened to accommodate the demand for on-campus incubation space. An extension to the existing building was due to be operational by June 2010.{{update inline|date=May 2020}}

The centre's role as an incubator is to assist the formation and growth of early stage, knowledge intensive businesses, by providing physical space, in-house management support, access to advice and support from Institute resources.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.rubiconcentre.ie/index.php/about-us |title=About Us |access-date=2010-09-04 |url-status=dead |website=rubiconcentre.ie |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100405235145/http://www.rubiconcentre.ie/index.php/about-us |archive-date=5 April 2010 }}</ref>
