On Thursday 13th November, IIBN launched its Mentoring Programme to over 150 of its members and sponsors amidst the splendour of the Ball Room at the Irish Embassy, Grosvenor Place, London.

The Irish Ambassador, Mr David Cooney, formally opened the reception and warmly welcomed all those present. He spoke of his support for IIBN and encouraged its development and growth in London, New York and beyond. Mr Cooney focused specifically on the importance of the Mentoring Programme and paid tribute to the IIBN Board for their vision in helping to support and nurture Irish entrepreneurs and encourage business development globally.

Conor Foley, Chairman of IIBN, thanked the Ambassador for his generous support and explained in more detail how the Mentoring Programme will work going forward. Full details of the Programme will go live on the IIBN website shortly and each member will be contacted soon to determine their level of interest in the Mentoring Programme. Conor concluded by thanking IIBN?s sponsors, Gates & Partners, Wingrave Yeats and Deutsche Bank for their continued support and commitment.

Once the formal part of the evening concluded, delegates were treated to a generous selection of canapés and beverage.

The IIBN Board would like to thank the Ambassador and his wife, David and Geraldine, for their generosity in hosting such a wonderful evening and for their ongoing support for the work of IIBN
