Hi There,
Belated happy new year (of the Dog) to you. I hope that you and yours had a peaceful and enjoyable end to 2005 (year of the Rooster) and start to 2006. We kicked off the new year with our networking event in the Guinness Storehouse last week. It was a really buzzy event, with loads of information and experiences shared. Point your browser to the NEO Ireland website for a review. Roll on the next one!
NEO Ireland Events 2006:
At the January networking event, we outlined our plans for events in 2006. First up (after the January networking) is the February Networking : Let Me Entertain You on February 16th. Martin Nolan of MPI - Martin Nolan and Associates- will give us chapter and verse on booking all sorts of entertainment for your event. Mary Menton from the Dublin Speakers Bureau will be giving us some hints on how to go about choosing speakers. If you haven't already registered, please go to the invite site. In March, we're heading over to the Stillorgan Park Hotel for Count Me In : Knowing Your Numbers - a half day seminar for event organisers on the 7th of March, followed by a networking lunch. Booking is now open at the seminar site.
We're running another seminar - The Business of Events - in the fabulous Kilshane House on the 4th of April, where we hope that interested parties in the West and South will join us to help extend the network. The first NEO Ireland Conference and Exhibition : Events Day '06 will take place in the Leopardstown Pavilion on May 10th. We are currently calling for contributions and papers on www.neoireland.com. For more events, see the NEO Ireland Events page on the website. The second half of the year will start off with our first birthday party - more information to follow.
Keep in Touch:
I'd really love to hear from you if you have events to add to the calendar, special offers for NEO Ireland members, news items of interest to our industry or any other comments or articles. If you know of a friend or colleague with an interest in events management, please send them to www.neoireland.com to join up, or have them contact me: sarah@neoireland.com or Lisa: lisa@neoireland.com. I Look forward to meeting you at a future NEO Ireland event or to hearing from you in the near future, Best regards, Sarah

Life With Lisa :
Life with Lisa continues to be a rollercoaster of hilarious tales, mad encounters, and a fascinating view on the kinds of events taking place all over Ireland at the moment. Lisa donned her Santa hat for our Christmas Party at the James Joyce House of the Dead; Got a geography lesson at the launch of South County Dublin Tourism; Met the glitterati at the Digital Media Awards and met another class of animal altogether at Masterchef's launch of the Meerkat Rooms in Dublin Zoo.

NEO Ireland January Networking:
The January NEO Ireland Networking was held in the Guinness Storehouse, where more than 50 event organisers and suppliers heard Des Doris from Alchemy Events talk about contingency planning. There was an amazing amount of frankness from our networkers when it came to talking about their own previous plans and some glitches! Click here to read more about it in this months Top Tips.
