I am pleased to invite you to attend Fine Gael’s first-ever Small Business and Enterprise Conference taking place on Saturday, September 24th in Thomond Park, Limerick.
Happening only a few days ahead of Budget 2023, this will be a hugely interesting event that is open to all Fine Gael members and supporters. With the fallout from the Russian invasion of Ukraine causing a massive cost of living and energy crisis, we will be discussing how those and other challenges will impact our country, the economy and Ireland’s hugely important small businesses as well as hearing views as to what actions need to be taken at an Irish and European level.
I will be joined at this conference by:
The Tánaiste and Party Leader, Leo Varadkar
The European Commissioner for Financial Stability, Financial Services and the Capital Markets Union, Mairead McGuinness
The Minister for Social Protection and Rural Development, Heather Humphreys
The Minister for Higher and Further Education, Simon Harris
The Minister of State for Business, Employment and Retail, Damien English
We will also be joined by a variety of leading business people and entrepreneurs, including Helen O’Donnell of Dolmen Catering, Pat Rigney of Drumshanbo Gunpowder Gin and Pierce Dargan of Equine Medirecord who will share their experience. The event will open at 10am and continue across the day.
Please register now to ensure your place and I look forward to seeing you on Saturday, September 24th in Thomond Park.
Paschal Donohoe TD
Minister for Finance and President of the Eurogroup
