My colleagues and I were delighted to facilitate this high energy event where tourism & hospitality businesses got to meet, cross sell and initiate discussions around future collaborations with each other. We also got inspiration and insights from @ManchanMagan on the day.
Over 50 tourism businesses from West Cork and Kenmare attended a special Fáilte Ireland networking event in @MaritimeBantry today. The event which was organised by @Failte_Ireland to build collaboration across the tourism industry from West Cork and Kenmare, encouraging businesses to collaborate and cross-sell to attract visitors and inspire them to explore the county and all it has to offer. Fáilte Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way team provided the attendees with an update on key initiatives for the destination while @ManchanMagan talked about West Cork & Kenmare being a pioneering destination, a place of fresh thinking based on old traditions with so much tourism potential when businesses and communities collaborate and work together.
