On behalf of the board and fellow members, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and yours all the best for the festive season and a prosperous 2014.
During the past year we celebrated the 25th Anniversary since the formation of the Chamber together with some other highlights including:
- Over 100 new companies joined the Chamber
- We welcomed over 2,000 guests to our events
- We built on our exisiting links with other Chambers and associated groups to widen the scope of opportunities presented to members.
- We continued to grow our national Mentoring Program and are in the midst of a series of webinars that will continue to engage and inform our members.
As we look ahead into 2014, the support of our sponsors and partners will be vital to our ability to continue to grow our offering and provide more opportunities for our community and so I would again encourage you to be involved with the Chamber as a member, as a sponsor, as a table captain, as a mentor or as a speaker.
With your continued support, there is no reason not to be optimistic about what lies ahead for the Chamber and our members in 2014.
Please note that the Chamber offices will be closed from 20th December 2013 until 6th January 2014 but our website and social media groups will remain operational to allow you to book into events and engage with your fellow members at your convenience.
In the meantime, enjoy your summer break and a very merry Christmas to you.
Colin Egan
President
