Launched by the Business & Finance Media Group, the Business Show centres on the theme of ‘Rebooting Ireland’ and brings together leaders from business and politics in Ireland.

Given the enormous paradigm shift brought about by COVID-19, the Business Show aims to initiate solution-based discussions through engaging and convening the business community on the questions of resilience, the future of work and business in a ‘new normal’.

The Business Show will offer stories of resilience through turbulent times, shape strategies for success in the future and provide a global platform for businesses and leaders to share their story on the next steps for growth in the post-COVID era.

What to expect

The virtual summit will see business, political and social leaders gather on an exclusive online platform to engage with themes of Resilience, Strategic Growth, Innovation & Diversification, Digital Transformation, The Future of Work, Financial Planning & Funding, Human Resource Management & Upskilling, Business Process Optimisation, Business Continuity, International Expansion and Sustainability.

The Business Show aims to offer over 3,000 domestic and international attendees the opportunity to engage with over 50 speakers on all digital platforms via two virtual stages and a virtual exhibition hall.
