What is the Think 25 Conference?
The ISME Annual Conference is an opportunity for Irish SMEs to get together for a day of inspiring talks, panel discussions, networking and breakout sessions.
Commenting on this year’s conference, ISME CEO, Neil McDonnell said
“ISME is 25 years old this year. We’ve put a pretty eventful quarter-century behind us. We’re going to cast a nostalgic eye back to the Ireland of 1993 at our Annual Conference. But the main theme on the day will be looking ahead at the next quarter century. With all that is happening around us, we think the next 25 years will be the most eventful since we joined the EEC in 1973. Our relations with Northern Ireland, Britain, the EU, the USA, Asia and Africa will be profoundly changed. Brexit, an EU where we will be the only common-law member, a disengaging USA, and a more muscular China and India will change the way Ireland interacts with the world. It’s going to be a great place to be an SME. Join us in November to see why.”
2018 has represented dramatic changes to business compliance requirements in Ireland. In particular, the GDPR has changed the way businesses need to store, process and protect personal data.
Our team have been considering the long-term impact of compliance legislation and the new global nature of compliance. Join us at the conference to hear more about how to build a forward-thinking business compliance programme that will serve you for the next 25 years and beyond.
