This was organised by CLDC , Pitch, Fix and Mix Session in the Burren Visitor Centre Kilfenora on May 21st.

The facilitator was Evelyn Cormican.

This was a participant-led session designed to help tackle challenges including often being time and cash poor. Participants shared and discussed common business pain points, exchanged practical solutions for overcoming resource constraints, and collaborated through speed networking. 

The session encouraged peer learning, problem solving, and focused on building valuable connections and partnerships.

“The strength of a network lies not just in its numbers, but in the generosity of its members. The more we give, the more we grow—together.”
