Former international rugby player Brian O’Driscoll and economist David McWilliams will headline a major conference in Belfast organised by cross border agency InterTradeIreland.
The InterTradeIreland Business Summit ’23 is designed to be a forum for business from across the island of Ireland to share best practise and learn from a range of experts.
Panel sessions will take place featuring industry leaders such as Tina McKenzie CEO of Staffline Ireland, Mark Dowds CEO of Responsible and Joan Mulvihill digitalisation lead at Siemens. These discussions will offer practical advice and insight on topics including ambition and leadership and the global business opportunity in sustainability.
There will also be a focus on innovation, as serial entrepreneur Bobby Healy from drone delivery company Manna, and Stuart Harvey from Datactics will illustrate how cutting-edge technologies will impact firms of all sizes across the island. Delegates will also have the chance to hear from both large and small companies about how they have embraced automation, digitalisation and sustainability to transform their operations, improve productivity and create new economic opportunities.
"The Business Summit ‘23 is a really unique opportunity for businesses and stakeholders to gain insights from experts, learn about the latest trends and best practices in their sector and to network with other businesses,” Margaret Hearty, InterTradeIreland's chief executive officer, said. “We are excited to host this event in Belfast, a city that has seen significant economic growth and transformation in recent years, and we look forward to welcoming business leaders from across the island.”
“In the 25th anniversary year of the historic Belfast Good Friday Agreement, and the establishment of InterTradeIreland under Strand Two of the agreement, this event will showcase the progress achieved, as well as a roadmap to help businesses embrace the opportunities for the next twenty-five years.”
