Yesterday was the 2026 BNI Ireland National Conference that took place in the Bridge House Hotel, Tullamore., and brought together Ireland's BNI Chapter members, directors, ambassadors and leaders for an inspiring day built around the powerful theme of "ACCELERATE".
2 of our leadership team attended on the day; Tony Dunne, our VP, and Linda Enright, our Secretary Treasurer. Both enjoyed a full day of networking and presentations, starting with a breakfast Chapter meeting early in the morning, and then enjoyed a number of presentations including keynote speaker, BNI's founder Ivan Misner ! Linda and Tony got to meet the man himself and it was truly inspiring and motivating.
It was great to see and experience the energy in the room and share in the experiences of member's BNI journeys, recognise fellow member's and Chapter's achievements and meet new people.
The event closed off with a social BBQ out in the sunshine, where members got to catch up and share their thoughts and experiences from the day. Plenty of new connections made, and potential opportunities for referrals and business!
A big thank you to all involved in organising and running the event, and to the staff at the venue for looking after us so well.👏🏼
Definitely a great experience, highly recommended and something people should look forward to attending next year, which will take place on Friday 14th May 2027.
