Description

 

 

Launched by the Government in March 2012, ConnectIreland was set up as an additional vehicle to attract new investment to Ireland.

How it works

By introducing a company that may be considering an expansion to ConnectIreland, who will then make the pitch for Ireland, you can receive a reward up to €150,000 if that company eventually sets up in Ireland.

Over 1,800 jobs are being created through this intervention.

Can you make those connections?

Find out how at this Shannon Chamber luncheon. A local company, which has generated jobs through ConnectIreland, will also present at the lunch.

Registration & Networking: from 12.30p.m.

Lunch: from 1p.m. to 2.30p.m.

Members €40 / Non-Members €60

This is a great opportunity to entertain clients and colleagues at corporate tables. Tables of 8, 10 or 12 can be reserved.

Individual places are also available.
