Leading Irish businesses and industry groups will descend on London later this month to speak at a conference aimed at supporting UK-based companies considering moving part of their operations to Ireland as a result of the UK’s decision to leave the European Union.
Brexit Resilience – Focus on Ireland, will be chaired by John McGrane, CEO of The British Irish Chamber of Commerce and feature high-profile Irish business leaders including:
- Anne Heraty, CEO of global recruitment agency, Cpl Resources and President of Ibec, the group that represents Irish business
- Roland O’Connell, Chairman, Savills Ireland
- Aidan Scollard, Head of Brexit, Grant Thornton
- Adam Donaghue, Maples and Calder
- Ian Cooper, Locktons Companies
- Mary Buckley, Executive Director IDA
- Stephen Mullin, Director, Cpl
The event, which is being organised by City View, will take place on Wednesday 29th March from 1pm – 6pm at the Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel in Canary Wharf.
Neil Stewart, The Editorial Director of City View, organisers of the event, commented:
“The regulatory, financial, business and talent environment in Ireland and, in particular, Dublin, is akin to the UK – more so than any other European country. However, we feel there is a lack of information about this in the public domain for UK-based financial institutions who may have to move part of their operations due to Brexit. The purpose of this conference is to inform these businesses that they can continue to successfully operate their business with a footprint in London and the EU via Ireland, as many international companies already do.”
The audience on the day is expected to be made up chief operations officers, risk managers, company secretaries, HR directors and facilities managers from banking insurance and finance, in addition to legal and accountancy advisers to companies affected by Brexit.
