Some make music, some make champions, others make a leap, and still more make history. For all the women who are making it today in Ireland, The Irish Times is making a statement; that no matter who you are, you can BE a successful woman, and you have a responsibility to INSPIRE one.

We’re bringing our Be One Inspire One series to life with a reader event held in Roberta’s on the 23rd of May.

Over a delicious breakfast including Bucks Fizz or a Virgin Bellini we invite you to join us for a morning of mingling, motivation and mentorship. Orna Mulcahy of the Irish Times will host a panel of inspirational women from a cross section of industries who will share the driving forces behind their success and the advice they would give to others.

Each attendee will leave with a luxury goodie bag, and there will be plenty of competitions on the day, including the opportunity to win a one-on-one mentoring session with the panelist of your choice.

The exciting panel for the morning includes:

Oonagh O’Hagan – MD and owner, Meaghers Pharmacy

Claudia Carroll – Author and Actress

Sarah Keane – President of the Olympic Council of Ireland

Ellen Kavanagh – CEO, Waxperts

Be One Inspire One is brought to you in association with Ulster Bank.
