Could you use help with a specific project, task, or research? Would a new, fresh perspective boost an area of your organization? Do you have a technical need, such as updating your website? Would any employees be more productive if they had some assistance? Then this MEMBER SPOTLIGHT event is for you! Come learn the ins and outs of creating an internship program, from assessing your project needs and drafting an internship position description to attracting students to apply and much more.
Please save the date! More details coming soon.
The Irish American Business Chamber provides a wide range of events throughout the year, typically one event per month, which offer networking opportunities, professional development, community involvement and recognition. Our series of premier events offer a unique forum for the exchange of information for doing business in the Greater Philadelphia region and the Isle of Ireland.
Events vary from Member Spotlight networking breakfasts, to Executive Perspective speaker series events featuring top-level executives from local and international companies, to luncheon symposiums and awards ceremonies, to informal after-work networking receptions. We also work with fellow Irish organizations and the various international Chambers of Commerce in Philadelphia to widen your networking horizons. We strive to present opportunities that address the interests of our broad membership base.
