The brand of you

Membership of Ibec enables you to be better informed, better represented and better connected to meet the challenges of today’s economy and succeed. We give you access to a network of likeminded leaders across Ireland from all sectors of the economy and across all regions. Attendance at our CEO circles, economic briefings and policy working groups, exclusive briefings with political leaders and international stakeholders gives you profile and opportunities for peer networking. You also have access to an international network of business associations such as Business Europe, Digital Europe, and the OECD.

Your Ibec key Account Manager will keep you informed on relevant VIP briefings and working groups.

High-level engagement & facilitation

Ibec Global, our international business division, equips business leaders with the knowledge and skills to succeed on the global stage, as well as opportunities to engage publicly and privately at the highest level. Every March we take a delegation to the United States for our annual St. Patrick’s week outreach programme with key stakeholders. We also convene private and public high-level international discussions and debates in the context of major societal, policy, geopolitical and business trends that are going to define the direction of business and policymaking in the future.
