“Karen will share with us her journey of how she turned a passion for art into an international business success,” she said.

Julie Pollock, Chairperson from Women In Enterprise added: “This is a fantastic opportunity for local businesses to network and hear from an inspiring business woman who has grown her business internationally.”

The event will also provide the opportunity for businesses to take exhibition stands to promote their business or service, although spaces are limited.

The evening will consist of a sparkling wine reception followed by the guest speaker, then dinner and to finish off with some music from a local singer with ample opportunity to network and peruse the exhibitors stands at your leisure.
