With less than two months to go before our 2024 Business Delegation to Ireland, the final parts of the program are taking shape, and specific meetings and elements requested by those who've confirmed their places are being put in place - but capacity is starting to come under pressure as seats are snapped up.
So it's decision time for those considering travelling, as flights will need to be booked and our accommodation will need to be finalised in the coming weeks.
If you're considering it, we'd highly recommend it, and if you want to have a taste of the agenda, think engagement with Government and Opposition at Leinster House and Stormont. Think private briefings with the likes of Danny McCoy, CEO of Ibec, State Investment Agencies north and south, and expert advice on talent, investment, tax, regulation, and more. Think visits to innovative businesses that are transforming their areas of the economy, which included Artemis, Mannok, Catagen, Connected Health, Vhi, Glandore, CPL and OFX last time.
Add to this, the very best insights in cutting edge collaborations between business and the research institutes and universities, with the opportunity to meet the talent that's driving those projects.
Private coach travel is included, and we will be staying at some fantastic hotels, while enjoying some amazing local produce. We may even find our way to the odd distillery, and enjoy the VIP experience, over a week travelling with some senior peers in business.
If your sights are set beyond the local, then you should invest in yourself and grab this opportunity with both hands.
