MidlandsIreland.ie Best in Business Awards held in Tullamore

2nd July 2013

The MidlandsIreland.ie Best in Business Awards were held in The Tullamore Court Hotel on Friday evening last 28th June 2013.

Guests were welcomed by a drinks reception, sponsored by Tullamore Dew which gave business people from across the Midlands an excellent Networking opportunity.

Mr. John Humphries, President Midlands Gateway Chamber welcomed everyone to this, the third annual awards. ‘Let’s be honest about it, business in today’s environment is tough. Taking the decision to start up a business is one of the hardest choices a person can make; it takes a certain type of person to take that initial leap of faith to start a business, for someone to be successful in that venture is a completely different story and encompasses personal qualities only those in business and their families can understand’ before quoting a famous quote “The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary”

He pointed out the importance of using the expertise of your local Chambers of Commerce members, particularly in current economic circumstances. He welcomed all sponsors and finalists to the event and thanked them for their contribution to making the whole night possible.

Cllr. Fintan Cooney, Chairperson Midland Regional Authority addressed the audience stressing the importance of the ‘MidlandsIreland.ie’ which is our brand.
