Join us at KPMG offices in Belfast on 30 September for our Northern Ireland Regional Conference, for a day of inspiration, connection, learning & practical insights
Firstly a signature MBW boost of inspiration & motivation!
Senior leaders sharing industry insights as well as the experiences, lessons and career moments that have shaped them.
Personal development workshop with professional coach Jodi Goldman, helping you build the key skills you need to turn your ambition into action, whatever that looks like.
Plenty of time to make genuine connections with our brilliant community including retailers, manufacturers and suppliers from across the industry, with the conversations and connections that MBW events are known for.
Practical ideas you'll be able to use straight away.
We’re excited to bring together a line-up of senior leaders and industry experts who will share practical industry knowledge, real experiences, practical lessons and the decisions that shaped their careers.

We’ll share the full agenda closer to the event, but expect a mix of keynote sessions, industry insight, and dedicated time for networking and personal development with a professional coach, all designed to help you build confidence, capability and connections plus the usual dose of MBW inspiration!
We will be running three other regional Conferences in Birmingham, Bradford & Dublin over Sep & Oct, with a very similar agenda. The aim is to deliver our events near to where our community are based, and ensure that we enable as many people to attend as possible. If you are unable to make this date, please consider attending our other conferences taking place in the other three locations.
Feeling very motivated and inspired after the Meat Business Women conference. It was such a positive and engaging session and I met so many inspiring women in the industry!
