Kildare women in business luncheon 

Kildare women in business luncheon Kildare County Council’s Local Enterprise Office, in association with County Kildare Chamber and Network Ireland Kildare Branch, is excited to announce the upcoming women in business luncheon, a celebration of leadership, resilience, and innovation in the professional world.

The event will take place on 30 January at Kilkea Castle and will feature the inspirational story of Sarah de Lagarde.

Sarah de Lagarde is best known for her transformational journey of overcoming adversity and driving change. As a seasoned professional, Sarah embodies the essence of perseverance and the power of embracing challenges as opportunities for growth.

Her keynote, titled ‘Saint Brigid’s Legacy: Embracing Change and Resilience for Women in Business’, promises to leave attendees inspired and equipped with actionable strategies to thrive in their careers.

This event is designed to connect, empower, and celebrate women from all sectors of business.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with influential professionals and peers.

This is Kildare’s second annual Women in Business event to celebrate St Brigid.

Building on the success of the Brigid 1500 celebrations, which attracted nearly 80,000 visitors to Kildare in the early part of 2024, Brigid 2025 is set to deliver a bigger, bolder, and more vibrant experience as it becomes the latest cultural mainstay in an increasingly colourful annual Irish calendar.

Jacqui McNabb, Head of Enterprise, Tourism and Economic Development, Kildare County Council said: “Together with County Kildare Chamber and Network Ireland Kildare Branch, we are delighted to host this event and welcome Sarah de Lagarde as our keynote speaker.” 

“Her story is a testament to the resilience and determination that we aim to celebrate and cultivate among Kildare’s women in business."
