The project was one of the first successful applicants announced under the government's €1 billion Rural Regeneration and Development Fund.
The Ennistymon project involves the conversion of an existing building on Parliament Street in Ennistymon into a Multi-Service Innovation Centre.
It will comprise a Digital Hub with business broadband, a family resource centre and community amenities.

Councillor Michael Begley, Mayor of Clare, said: "I welcome the fact that Clare has benefited in the initial tranche of funding under this scheme and I look forward to Clare featuring in the next announcement about funded projects in early 2019."
Pat Dowling, Chief Executive of Clare County Council, added: "This new centre project is going to have a significant, positive economic impact for the town of Ennistymon and wider North Clare area by contributing to employment creation and local regeneration. We therefore, welcome the support of Government under this Fund which makes the project viable into the future. We hope that Clare will benefit further under this €1 billion fund in the months and years ahead."
The Ennistymon Multi-Service Innovation Centre will open in late 2019.
