How it Works

There are over 200 Chapters of EO around the world and EO Ireland operates in the same way.

Some of the key things we love most about EO are:

  • FORUM
    When you join, you become part of a "forum" which is a group of 7-10 entrepreneurs (not in competition with you) who meet once a month in a highly confidential structured forum. Forum allows you to share challenges, successes and experiences in a secure space - whether you're running a large business or a start-up, the consistent feedback is we learn from each other.
  • EVENTS & CONNECTIONS
    EO Ireland host amazing events throughout the calendar year, usually 7 in person events a year. We have local and international speakers as well as interactive workshops. All of our events are focussed on building connections within EO - being an entrepreneur can be challenging and it's always great to connect with similar people.
  • WORLD CLASS LEARNING
    The scale of the global organisation means we have access to the best international leaders and speakers. Events are held around the world which you can attend, in person or virtually. There are also strong affiliations with universities such as MIT and Harvard where you can learn from the best in the world.
