Kilkenny Network
Background & Structure

Founded in 1996 to support women in business in Kilkenny City & County, Kilkenny Network is run by a voluntary committee, elected annually at our AGM.

As an organisation, we:

  • Identify external networking opportunities and strengthen our profile by working closely with local business support groups, such as Kilkenny County Enterprise Board (KCEB) and Kilkenny Chamber of Commerce
  • Identify opportunities for our members to become part of the decision-making process in Kilkenny, eg. through lobbying local government, accessing Strategic Policy Committees of Kilkenny County Council, nominations to organisational boards
  • Identify opportunities for our members to network on a national basis, eg. through sourcing conferences & seminars appropriate to our members’ interests.
