Ireland Trade Mission 2026
15–17 September 2026
Explore New Business Opportunities in Ireland
Ireland has become one of Europe's most dynamic business destinations, offering strong economic growth, excellent access to EU markets and significant investment across sectors including construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, technology and professional services.
Join Chamber International and West & North Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce on the Ireland Trade Mission 2026 and discover new opportunities in one of the UK's closest trading partners. Working alongside Drogheda Chamber, Dublin Chamber and the British Embassy, this three-day business delegation has been designed to help UK businesses establish valuable commercial relationships, gain market intelligence and explore opportunities for growth.
Whether you are looking to enter the Irish market for the first time or strengthen your existing presence, this trade mission provides direct access to influential business networks and carefully selected contacts.
Why Join a Chamber Trade Mission?
Previous Chamber trade missions have helped businesses establish valuable international relationships, identify new customers and accelerate market entry.
Rather than spending months trying to reach the right contacts, delegates benefit from introductions facilitated through established Chamber networks and trusted in-market partners.
Many delegates also find that the relationships formed with fellow participants lead to valuable commercial opportunities long after the mission has ended.
Take a look at our highlights video from our recent trade mission to China & Hong Kong to see key moments from the visit, and business engagement in action.
