Celebrate Success Together at the Clare Social Enterprise Conference

Clare Local Development Company (CLDC) is proud to host the Clare Social Enterprise Network Conference 2025, highlighting our commitment to supporting social enterprise, community-led innovation, and positive change across County Clare.

The conference returns this year to The Inn at Dromoland on 10th December, building on last year’s successful Expo. This event is designed especially for social enterprises across County Clare—whether you’re already established or just getting started.

The conference will feature an inspiring keynote on challenges and opportunities in social enterprise development, along with lively panel discussions. You’ll have lots of opportunities to network with fellow social entrepreneurs, funders, and support organisations throughout the afternoon.

The event brings together social enterprises from all stages—newly formed, in the ideas phase, or well established. Attendees can look forward to a purposeful networking lunch, an interactive session led by John FitzSimons on communicating impact beyond traditional metrics, and the exclusive launch of the Social Enterprise Directory Flipbook featuring all Clare Social Enterprise Network members.

It’s more than an event—it’s a space to connect, share experiences, and explore new collaborations to help your social enterprise thrive. And with some festive cheer in store, we’re excited to close out the year with fresh momentum.

The Clare Social Enterprise Conference offers space to step back from daily demands, celebrate achievements, and connect with like-minded change-makers in business.
