Future Leaders Network: International Women’s Day Edition

To mark International Women’s Day, the INO Future Leaders Network invites members to The Odeon at 6.30pm on Wednesday, 11 March for a special evening of connection, food, drinks, performance and our usual raffle of exciting prizes.

For this edition, we’ll be taking a pause from our usual speed networking format to make way for a more structured approach, creating plenty of space to listen, learn and engage with ideas around leadership, allyship, voice and visibility.

The evening will feature a moderated panel discussion with senior leaders from business and culture. Our panellists include:

• Rachel Hussey, Clients and Markets Partner at Arthur Cox, Pro-Chancellor of Trinity College Dublin and a long-standing advocate for gender equality in business and beyond.
• Myles Clarke, Managing Director at CBRE. Myles is a seasoned executive, experienced in running global businesses in banking, capital markets and real estate. Myles is also the Chair of Business to Arts – supporting creatives in Ireland through purposeful partnerships with the corporate sector.

Additional panellists will be announced shortly.

We’ll also be joined by Netia Jones, Director of Irish National Opera’s upcoming production of Rusalka, who will share her insights on women’s representation in the opera and the wider cultural landscape in a dedicated segment. The evening will be interspersed with live musical performances.

Designed for early-to-mid-career professionals across all sectors, this International Women’s Day edition of the Future Leaders Network offers a chance to engage with big ideas, hear from inspiring voices, and connect with others in a setting that feels thoughtful, welcoming and authentic.

This initiative is supported by Spencer Lennox.
