Councillor Patrick C. Fitzgerald, who is a member of Limerick County Councils’ Social and Community SPC, will attend the Irish Post Business Gala Dinner at London’s Dorchester Hotel on October 31.
The dinner is the culmination of a series of business events showcasing the success and contribution of Irish business leaders and companies in Britain across industries such as construction, manufacturing, tourism, legal and finance.
In attendance will be almost 150 Irish business people who have committed to be part of economic development in Ireland.
Councillor Fitzgerald said he was honoured to have been invited to attend next month’s event. “Events such as these are important for a number of reasons. They not only remind us of the solid connections that exist between County Limerick and its Diaspora, but they also serve to strengthen the sense of community spirit that exists among Limerick people in Britain”, he said.
“I will use the event as an opportunity to inform members of the Irish community who have established successful businesses in Britain that Limerick is an attractive investment location”, he said.
Commenting on The Irish Post newspaper’s sponsorship of the event, Cllr. Fitzgerald said:
“The Irish Post has been the newspaper of choice for the Irish Diaspora in Britain over many years. It showcases the wealth of activity on-going within the Irish community there. I am delighted to learn that the newspaper has recently invested in the Irish Voice and Irish America magazine in a move that will secure its future and the level of media coverage provided for Irish people living abroad.”
