As the closing date for registration draws ever closer, Meetwest 2016 is an opportunity not to be missed. Meetwest this year is being held in the McWilliam Park Hotel, Claremorris, on November 24 and 25 and is being hosted by Mayo County Council.
This year’s event is lining up to be an essential date in the calendar of every business in the west of Ireland, or interested in doing business in the west, as it addresses many of the issues that present in the changing business environment in which we now live.
Day one will start with a conference where there will be a great opportunity to gain new knowledge from experts in the fields of digital marketing and sales. The issue of Brexit and the challenges and opportunities it presents to businesses will also be addressed.
The foundation on which Meetwest is built is the abundant networking opportunities which it offers. The opportunities take place on day one with an informal networking reception and dinner, and on day two with the structured 15 minute meetings otherwise known as “speed dating for businesses”.
The opportunities which these two forms of networking presents are immense, from establishing new relationships and starting the sales process, to building on old relationships that may have developed from previous MeetWest events, as each year it sees a large number of repeat delegates. Previous MeetWest attendees stated: "It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I met as many delegates during breaks and at dinner as I did at the arranged meetings and every one of them was as valuable as the next," and, "MeetWest is by far the best networking event in Ireland or the UK that I have ever been to, and the only one that is now scheduled as a permanent fixture in my diary".
Perhaps one of the biggest opportunities in the short term for this year’s event is that delegates have the chance to win their registration fee back, by registering online at www.meetwest.ie Each week one lucky registered delegate will be selected at random and the registration fee will be returned to him/her.
There are few events remaining this year that present such a wealth of opportunities and chances to take your business to the next level. Registration is advised before October 31 as it is expected that MeetWest will have reached capacity by then.
