On Monday 12th February, Wine Spirit Women and Diageo hosted a “Coffee & Connect” event where trade professionals from the drink and food industry joined together for an engaging networking morning.

Guests had the chance to meet fellow industry peers from a variety of companies, sharing their passion for the industry and making meaningful connections with their peers.

During the event, Wine Spirit Women announced their new mentorship programme in collaboration with Diageo. Education, networking and mentorship are three key pillars of Wine Spirit Women and we are excited to strengthen our efforts in these fields.

The mentorship programme is open to all Wine Spirit Women members only, while the role of mentors will be open to anyone working in the drinks trade (they do not have to be Wine Spirit Women members). Anyone interested in becoming a mentor or mentee can fill out the declaration of interest form here, and more information about the programme will be sent at a later date.

Wine Spirit Women would like to thank Diageo for hosting this Coffee & Connect event. We look forward to the next networking opportunities and to meeting more of the dynamic drinks industry in Ireland.
