IRELAND’S METAMORPHOSIS: FROM RECESSION TO EMERGENCE We invite you to join this diverse and seasoned panel of experts as they explore the ‘road ahead’ for Ireland and the path various sectors must take to ensure Ireland’s recovery and emergence from recession. This panel discussion will be facilitated by noted RTE journalist and presenter, Mark Little and will involve facilitated questions and discussion with our panelists and with the audience. We hope you will join us as we take a positive look at the current economic environment, exploring the opportunities that are available in an economic downturn and as we set a challenge for the rising generation to help lead Ireland into a new age.
