Top Entrepreneurs from Munster Gather for Forum in Limerick Town

The Longcourt House Hotel in Newcastle West was buzzing with excitement as one hundred of Munster’s top entrepreneurs and business leaders gathered for the All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF) Munster entrepreneurs meet-up. The event, sponsored by Aqua Process Solutions and One4All gift card company, aimed to foster relationships within the Irish business community.

Mayor of Limerick, Cllr Gerald Mitchell, kicked off the event which featured a panel discussion with local business people Helen McCormack and Neilus Brouder. Keynote speaker Mags Boland Murphy shared her insights, while Dr Briga Hynes of the Kemmy Business School at University of Limerick gave a presentation on trust, expectations, and actions.

Attendees were treated to two keynote speeches on succeeding with key performance indicators in 2024 by Chris Farr of Sontai and Andy Burke of Blue Vista. AIBF chief executive Elaine Carroll emphasized the importance of these meet-ups in helping entrepreneurs cultivate valuable relationships and gain practical insights.

This was the second regional event hosted by AIBF in 2024, following a successful gathering in Cork. The foundation will also host its annual conference, The All-Ireland Business Summit, at Croke Park on June 12 and the AIBF Leaders Forum and Christmas Lunch at the Aviva Stadium on December 11.

Overall, the event was a great success, bringing together business leaders from across Munster to network, learn, and share their experiences in the ever-evolving world of entrepreneurship.
