Derry Chamber are thrilled to announce the addition of our newest Corporate Partner, Alchemy Technology Services. This marks another significant milestone in the Chamber’s continued growth and influence across the North West business community, and in cementing one of Northern Ireland’s leading tech firms as a key business stakeholder for the region both locally and nationally.

This new partnership reflects Derry Chamber’s ongoing commitment to strengthening connections between industry leaders and supporting economic development across the region.

Alchemy, a leading software implementation and consultancy firm in the global insurance technology industry, was founded in Derry/Londonderry in 2018 by John Harkin with a mission to create a centre of excellence that would offer world class careers for the talent of the North West.

The organisation’s commitment to our region has been clearly illustrated in the past, such as becoming the first tenant of the new Ebrington Plaza building as part of a multi-million pound investment in the North West region. The firm has gone on to further strengthen its position by being acquired by global technology leader NTT DATA, a move which accelerated international growth and established a new Global Centre of Excellence for Guidewire Delivery in our city.

As a Corporate Partner, Alchemy will play a key role in influencing the Chamber’s strategic direction and supporting initiatives designed to drive innovation and growth across the North West.

Making the announcement, Derry Chamber highlighted the importance of collaboration with leading organisations like Alchemy, particularly at a time of evolving economic opportunities and challenges.

Londonderry Chamber CEO Anna Doherty said:

“We are thrilled to welcome Alchemy as our newest Corporate Partner to Derry Chamber. This partnership represents a shared commitment to driving economic growth and supporting the continued success of businesses across the North West.

“The insight and expertise of Alchemy will be invaluable in helping to shape our strategic priorities and strengthen our voice on the issues that matter most to our members.

“Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do, and we look forward to working closely together to drive forward new opportunities, champion enterprise, and further enhance the North West’s reputation as a vibrant and competitive place to do business.”

Alchemy also welcomed the collaboration, highlighting the importance of working closely with the Chamber to drive forward regional growth.

Erin McFeely, Director Northern Ireland, Alchemy Technology Services said: 

“We are proud to become a Partner of Derry Chamber of Commerce. As a leading voice for the North West business community, the Chamber plays a key role in driving economic ambition and influencing positive change. Building trusted partnerships and supporting the continued growth and prosperity of the region is central to Alchemy, and we look forward to working closely with the Chamber and its members to help further that goal.”

This latest addition to the Corporate Partner network further enhances the Chamber’s ability to deliver high-impact programmes, events, and engagement opportunities for our members, and reinforces the North West’s position as a dynamic and forward-looking place to do business.

Derry Chamber looks forward to working with all of our Corporate Partners and Patrons to further amplify the voice of local business and shape our region’s economic future.
