Women’s Executive Network™ (WXN™) is a market leading Canadian organisation dedicated to the advancement and recognition of executive-minded women in the workplace. WXN™ in Ireland will look to promote a similar model through innovative networking and the delivery of mentoring and professional development programmes in order to support and recognise female senior executives; managers in business, government and non-profit sectors; plus entrepreneurs in all areas of business.

A series of WXN™ breakfast meetings showcasing Ireland’s most celebrated and influential female leaders in the private and public sectors will be held throughout 2009 in Dublin, Belfast and Cork. The first three WXN™ breakfasts have already attracted great attention amongst Ireland’s business community by featuring well known speakers such as Mary Davis, CEO of Special Olympics Europe/Eurasia; Danuta Grey, CEO O2, Maeve Donovan, CEO Irish Times, Louise Kennedy, Fashion Designer; Jane McDonnell, Publisher, The Gloss Magazine and Amanda Pratt, Creative Director, Avoca.

Further details on the breakfast meetings and other WXN™ initiatives can be found on our website.
