County Kildare Chamber held their Annual General Meeting on Monday evening, 19th November.  Maureen Bergin was re- elected President of the Chamber.  Speaking today  ( Friday 30th November), Maureen,  Community and Business Relations Director with Kildare Village said, “I am looking forward to my second year as President.  The Chamber continues to grow in strength and it is testament to the hard work of the team in the office and the outgoing committee.   We face challenges and opportunities in Kildare over the coming years, particularly in terms of maintaining the current momentum of attracting and retaining FDI, putting further policies in place to support the SME sector and embracing the next generation of talent.   We enjoy an excellent relationship with all key stakeholders in Kildare and I look forward to working with them all  in my term as President.
