As we saddle up for the Year of the Horse, a symbol of drive, resilience, and unstoppable momentum - we’re delighted to share what this energy means from our corner of the world.

At our recently held AGM, we released our Year of the Horse report giving a brief outlook from some of our members on the year ahead by asking a series of questions and getting their perspectives from a range of industries.

A sincere thank you to our contributors and members that took part and assisted in putting the report together, and to all our members for powering the Irish Chamber community through the Year of the Snake and into the Year of the Horse.

爱尔兰中国商会衷心感谢您 - 祝您马年新春快乐！

We recently held our Annual General Meeting at Ireland House last week, where we had a chance to go through a review of the year, and outline some of our plans for the year ahead. We also voted in our new Chairperson, Jo McFarland, and two new committee members to join the board, Guy Wingfield Horan and Audrey Wang.

Many thanks to all those who attended the event, it was great to see everyone before the New Year is upon us, and to our Chamber member Abbey Road for providing the catering.

A special thanks to all those who participated in our Year of the Horse report, which we will be sharing with you online shortly, and a final word of thanks to our Consul General David Murphy for hosting our AGM.
