Join the Small Firms Association (SFA) in Galway on Tuesday, 9 June from 10.30AM at the Ibec Galway Office (H91 XYE0) for a practical morning briefing: People, Process & Progress.

Designed for busy West of Ireland business owners, this complimentary session focuses on three critical pillars: mastering upcoming HR updates like pay transparency with Joe O’Reilly (SFA); simplifying digitalisation and AI with John O’Shanahan (LeanBPI); and learning candid scaling lessons from local award-winners Paul Glynn (Topform) and Heather Connolly (Builín Blasta).

Step away from your desk, gain actionable insights, and network over a light lunch. Register your free place today: https://www.ibec.ie/sfa/news-insights-and-events/events/2026/sfa-b2b-and-networking-june---galway/general-details

The SFA is committed to ensuring the voice of the small business sector in Ireland is heard. As part of this commitment, the SFA have partnered with Amárach Research to undertake a survey on challenges to viability and growth amongst small firms like yours.

If your business has 50 employees or less, we would really appreciate it if you could take 10 minutes out of your busy schedule to answer to this survey (https://panel.amarachsurveys.ie/S2/159/SFA26L6/). It will remain open until *5pm on Monday, 18 May*.

All responses will be kept strictly confidential and will not be associated with any individual or organisation.
