Ahead of our AGM tomorrow, all of us in Network Cork would like to take a moment to thank our outgoing president, Cathy Fitzgibbon for her amazing year as Network Cork President. Cathy has embedded her core value of Sustainable Success throughout the year, as reflected in her events which focused on environmental sustainability, personal sustainability and business sustainability. Her leadership has been a guiding light for our branch. We are glad she isn't going too far and will be taking up the position of Ex-Officio in 2025-2026. We would also like to thank Susana Marambio, who finishes up as Ex-Officio, for all she has done for the branch in her roles as Vice- President, President and Ex-Officio. To the Network Cork Committee of 2025 - thank you all for a year jam-packed with fantastic events. It takes a village! And finally to our incoming President Diane Higgins, we know our branch is in safe hands with you at the helm.💫💫 #NetworkCork #NetworkIreland #SupportedbyAIB
