We listened to our members’ concerns about the lack of opportunity to meet with like-minded professionals in their specific areas of expertise and have set up a number of Forums to enable executives exchange ideas, issues and share best practice.

The Forums are exclusive to experienced professionals in each respective area of expertise. Forum members meet formally up to four times a year.

This Shannon Chamber Sustainability Network was formed for CEOs and senior executives in member companies who are tasked with leading their organisations’ sustainability strategies.

It was set up to create the space, time, and an environment to support the thinking, reflection, sharing of ideas, best practices, planning, implementation and attainment of sustainability goals in member companies

To support the objectives of the Shannon Chamber Sustainability Forum, the Committee may seek to liaise with other forums and partnerships in the interests of the Task Force members and the Chamber.

This Forum is chaired by Barry Gavin, Sustainability Professional
