Gillian Horan examines why Branding Matters for Network Ireland Limerick event

Branding expert Gillian Horan will be the keynote speaker for a special Network Ireland Limerick event which will take place in AIB’s 106 O’Connell Street branch, Limerick on 20 February 2019 at 6pm. The AIB-sponsored event is free and open to all women in business, the professions and the arts in the Mid-West.

Gillian Horan, CEO of The Pudding, a creative and commercial Branding Company, is one of Ireland’s leading voices in the industry. During the talk, Gillian will delve into the importance of investing and re-investing in a brand, whether personal and business, to help stand out from the crowd. She will also share lots of tips on how to do this and keep a brand fresh. Speaking about the upcoming event, Ms Horan said, “If you’re a one-person show or have a small team behind you and you DON’T have a Brand Strategy you’re leaving money on the table. Brand investment will drive business results.”
