Projects approved by Údarás na Gaeltachta will create new full-time jobs in Kerry.
The Údarás board approved projects at its final meeting of the year, which will result in 28 full-time jobs in Gaeltacht companies in Kerry, Galway and Donegal.
The projects will receive up to €1.4 million from private investments and State support when they're underway.
The Board also approved a budget of over €5m (€5.125m) to fund the implementation of its Community Development, Language and Cultural Tourism Programme for 2021.
This is an increase of €700,000 on last year's budget.
