It was great to understand more about Derry Chamber from Anna, Natalie and Emile at today’s inviting and informal event. As a new member, I did not know what to expect, but everyone made feel very at ease from the welcome on the stairs from Emile to my fellow attendees. Anna mentioned about the vibrancy of the business community in Derry and in the Northwest in general and I have to agree. Since we have made some connections in the area myself and the S A Partners team have been hugely energised and pumped to see how we can support the unlocking of the potential of Northern Ireland and this part of the island in particular has some real exciting times ahead with growth in University numbers and intentional tie ups forming between academia, industry, local government and national bodies. Its a really tantalising time to be here and I and the S A Partners team feel privileged to be a member of the Derry Chamber.

Looking forward to getting to know more of the business community and establishing lasting connections. Thanks to everyone for a lovely event.

The pack in photo was for all attendees which was very welcome as well as the treats which were devoured!

Here’s to the next time!
