The Irish Exporters Supper Club is a series of dinners sponsored by Immedis, providing a platform for Chief Executives, Managing Directors and Business Leaders to connect in Ireland on the topic of international growth.

The Irish Exporters Association is a fantastic organisation helping Irish businesses to grow their exports internationally by providing a range of support services. The Supper Club focused on the UK, US and Canadian markets with specific events targeting each country.

Immedis and Taxback have been running these events with the IEA since September 2014 with the inaugural event for the UK Supper Club with H.E. Dominick Chiclcott. Over 30 senior business leaders came together to discuss Ireland as a place to do business, exporting and global mobility. Pat Gilroy, former Gaelic footballer, former Dublin manager and all-Ireland medalist addressed guests on the night.

Our most recent event took place on April 26th when the British Ambassador to Ireland, Robin Barnett, attended the Supper Club with Johnny Sexton as a keynote speaker of the evening who kept the room entertained with stories from his international rugby career.
