Successful business women across multiple sectors recently gathered at Cork’s Maryborough Hotel to celebrate personal and professional achievements at a charity networking event by Elevate, a sub-committee of the Irish Grocers Benevolent Fund (IGBF).
A newly established initiative by the IGBF, Elevate has become a leading networking event for women in all business sectors, which facilitates them to build new connections and explore prevalent issues and opportunities through a discussion led by inspirational business leaders.
Speakers included Aldagh McDonogh, CEO of Morgan McKinley, Colette Twomey, MD of Clonakilty Foods, Deirdre Clune, MEP and Catherine Cashman, health and wellness advocate.
“Today was a true celebration of women,” said Deirdre Behan, chair of the Elevate committee. “It was fantastic to see representatives of so many sectors and seeing the possibilities of what we can collectively achieve.”
Elevate was established as a supporting branch of the IGBF, which assists people in the retail, wholesale and supplier trade sector in Ireland. The objective of the Fund is to provide financial relief for those in need, including grocers, wholesalers, manufacturers and more.
