Roseann Kelly, CEO of Women in Business believes that the conference will have a wide appeal, “The effectiveness of female leaders in handling the COVID-19 crisis is widely recognised as being overwhelmingly positive, with evidence showing that outcomes are systematically better in countries led by women. Through our partnership with InterTradeIreland, we are excited about exploring the characteristics of a true leader, learning from inspiring female trailblazers while encouraging businesswomen across the country to continue to make a difference in the workplace.”
The event is being delivered in partnership with InterTradeIreland, a company with 20 years’ experience of helping SMEs on both sides of the border to succeed, by offering business funding, advice and support.
Margaret Hearty, Director of Business Services at InterTradeIreland said: “As a woman in the world of business I have a personal insight into both some of the particular obstacles we must overcome, as well as the opportunities, skillsets and perspectives we can bring. Events such as these are all about empowering entrepreneurial women to realise their potential, which dovetails in every respect with InterTradeIreland’s core mission to support innovative and progressive businesses across the island.”
This conferences sees the first all Island wide collaboration of networks partnering together including key partner IntertradeIreland and supporters CBI; Network Ireland; FSB; Lean in Ireland: Women’s Inspire Network; Planet Woman; Evolve; Women in Enterprise and MAW Network.
