What a memorable occasion at the iconic Shelbourne Hotel ! 

It was so great to see so many familiar faces, and so many new back sharing a space. It spoke volumes to have so many people eager to connect again and understand the importance of staying informed of who you can and want to connect and do business with. We were hosted by Andrew, Hannah and the Shelbourne team who were fantastic in assisting us to have this event in such an iconic hotel steeped in history and their gorgeous terrace, as we were serenaded by their Spanish guitarist! The  delectable canapés and oysters went down a treat for our guests!

There were fabulous prizes on the night, we had:
