Formerly CEO of Wates Group, Paul is a recipient of the 2019 Presidential Distinguished Service Award for the Irish Abroad for his accomplishments in business and services to the construction industry.

Join over 200 delegates in the historic and Grade II Listed Great Hall for a day packed with Ted Talks, Fireside Chats, Pitches and high-level networking in the company of Irish business leaders, entrepreneurs and policy makers from around the world.

Conference speakers, sponsors and delegates are also invited to a pre-reception on the evening of Thursday November 7th, hosted by the Irish Ambassador Adrian O'Neill at The Irish Embassy, Grosvenor Place.
