FEWN Summer Networking Event

Summer Spirit Sparkles at Fingal Enterprising Women Network Event

FEWN Summer Event 2022

Fingal's Female Entrepreneurs were out in force on Thursday, the 9th of June, for the annual Fingal Enterprising Women Network summer event at Kettles Country House Hotel, Lispopple, Swords. The networking event, hosted by Local Enterprise Office Fingal, was a unique opportunity for businesswomen to meet like-minded entrepreneurs and make valuable business connections.

"Branding Brilliance - How to Create a Powerful Brand" was the topic of the evening, with the keynote speaker, Anne Gallagher, sharing her extensive expertise and knowledge on the secrets behind great branding. Anne used examples of powerful existing brands and gave valuable tips on how small businesses could adopt strategies to ensure they stand out from the crowd. Attendees then had the opportunity to network with fellow businesswomen, a well-earned luxury following the challenges of the two-year pandemic.

Speaking after the event, Oisín Geoghegan, Head of Enterprise Fingal, explained, "the objectives of networking events like this are to provide a platform for businesswomen to share experiences and tap into the extraordinary wellspring of female entrepreneurial talent we have here in Fingal."

He went on to say that "the Fingal Enterprising Women Network has grown from strength to strength in recent years, reflecting the enthusiasm and ambition of these businesswomen who are focussed on "Making It Happen." 

Sharon Rossignuolo, Manager of the Fingal Enterprising Women Network, emphasised the importance of building a solid foundation for your business by getting the basics right. "Many women work alone in their business, and time is a precious resource, so having access to expert tips to build that foundation can pay huge dividends when deciding where to focus your efforts. In addition, the opportunity to build valuable connections makes Fingal Enterprising Women Network an excellent resource for the region."
