What is the Open Coffee Club all about?

It is an attempt to establish recognized, open and regular meeting places where entrepreneurs can meet with investors (and anyone else who fancies coming along) in a totally informal setting. The key is a regular place and a regular time - it's not important who comes along, some days it might be no one - just that people know if they want to meet, this is the time and this is the place.

Laura Ní Eachnacháin, Gnó Mhaigheo; Cillian O’Mongain, www.cillian.ie, Ciarán O’Murchu, UISCE and Michael Thornhill, Maithú; at the Club Caife Business Networking event with Mayo Ideas Lab, Belmullet on 12th March

Club Caife, an Irish language themed networking event for businesses was held in Ballina, Belmullet, Castlebar and Claremorris to coincide with Seachtain na Gaeilge.

There was a very positive response to each Club Caife throughout the county and in the true spirit of networking; business was created, new ideas discussed and contacts made.

Michael Thornhill of Maithú Software presented his software package ‘Get the Focal’ and spoke of how networking and the Irish language have helped his business grow. Interestingly a number of businesses that attended reflected Michael’s experience with the Irish language and stated that using the Irish language has also been good for their business.

Due to the positive response to the Club Caife a network has been created with the aim to expand and provide services to the members such as translations, advice, marketing opportunities and knowledge. Marketing opportunities that exist include the Gnó Mhaigh Eo on-line business directory. This is a directory of businesses and organisations in Mayo that can provide their service through Irish. Businesses registered to date range from solicitors to shop keepers to hoteliers to web designers.

This event was hosted in partnership with Ballina Chamber, Claremorris Chamber, the Innovation in Business Centre and Mayo Ideas Lab.

If you would like anymore information on Club Caife or if you would like to be a member of the business directory please contact Gnó Mhaigh Eo on 098 26555 or at eolas {at} gnomhaigheo(.)ie.

First Mayo Open Coffee Club was a great success

As far as I am concerned, I am very happy with the success of our first meeting. I came in a bit early to set myself up, as I wanted to broadcast/have the meeting in an online conference. Unfortunately there was no WiFi in the Pub, so we had to move to the study, which turned out to be a good idea. The online conferencing system didn’t really work out either, so for the next time I will have to find another solution.

Dispite all that it was great to meet so many nice people and I am looking forward to our next MOCC. But see for yourself and leave a comment.
