Business Networking - Région Sud

On the occasion of the France vs Ireland 6 nations rugby match, NetworkIrlande are delighted to invite members to a pre-match business networking reception kindly hosted by our Pioneer Member Pernod Ricard at their incredible headquarters on the docks of Marseille. 

This event will take place from 4pm to 6.30pm and guests will be welcomed by our host Mr. Guillaume Girard-Reydet, President of Pernod Ricard France, along with Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill, T.D., Irish Minister of State at the Department of Finance, and in the presence of H.E. Mr. Niall Burgess, Ambassador of Ireland to France, H.E. Mr. Vincent Guérend, Ambassador of France to Ireland and Mr. Richard Dujardin, President of NetworkIrlande.

The event is open to all NetworkIrlande members and select guests from the region. Not only is Marseille host to the 6 nations rugby but also to the Euromaritime 2024 Trade Fair that same week so it really is going to be an incredible opportunity for business networking and development. Pre-registration is essential and capacity is limited so we would ask all members who would like to attend and who have not already indictated their presence to please sign up below without delay.

This reception is part of a full day of events open to our members as below...
