Cathriona Hallahan, Microsoft Ireland Managing Director, Dr Phil Nolan, former Chairman of Ulster Bank, Siobhán Talbot, Glanbia Group Managing Director, and Stan McCarthy, former Chief Executive at Kerry Group, were all named as IMI Life Fellows – the first time the honour has been awarded since 2002.
‘Life Fellowship is the highest honour bestowed by IMI’ said Terrence O’Rourke, IMI Board Chairman. ‘It is the means through which we publicly recognise and celebrate those who make a truly significant contribution to the practice of management and business leadership in Ireland. In essence, Life Fellows are those that have practiced and fulfil the mission of IMI.’
The 2018 IMI Life Fellows join a prestigious list of ninety nine business leaders and thinkers including T.K Whitaker, Peter Drucker, Peter Sutherland and Gillian Bowler. IMI will again be conferring the honour in the coming years on senior business leaders who have made a significant contribution to the Irish business landscape.

IMI recently became the first Irish executive education provider to be simultaneously listed on both the Customised and Open global rankings, published by the Financial Times. This global ranking follows the merger with University College Cork in 2016, combining UCC’s expertise, relationships and global reach with IMI’s global ranking, reputation for excellence and business community network to deliver distinctive executive education across Ireland and beyond.
‘It is an honour and a privilege to receive the life fellowship from IMI’ said Siobhán Talbot. ‘I am a huge believer in continuing education and in the opportunities that it opens up. In Glanbia, we have put a lot of focus on developing our leadership and management programmes over the years and the IMI have worked closely with us on this agenda.’

Dr. Mary Hogan to present at seminar on “Business Opportunities: Ireland and Korea”
Dr. Mary Hogan, IMI’s Registrar, will be presenting at a Seminar on Business Opportunities: Ireland and Korea held in the Dublin Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday the 29th of November. Whilst one of Ireland’s foremost academic registrars today, Dr. Hogan is an East Asian Markets Specialist having earned both her Masters Degree and PhD in the “Asian Pacific Political Economy” from the University of Hong Kong.
The event is the first of its kind in Dublin and hopes to attract Irish exporters who are seeking to take advantage for the free trade agreement between Korea and the EU. Further to an informative seminar for exporters, the event also will feature an exhibition of products, brochures and catalogues from 30-40 exceptionally innovative Korean companies.
Next week’s seminar / exhibition is being organised as part of a roadshow from the Korean Trade & Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) and aims to offer Irish exporters clear and in-depth knowledge of the processes required for imports, exports and using the EU-Korea Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Dr. Mary Hogan of the Irish Management Institute will be joined on the expert speaker panel by trade advisors from KOTRA and also a number people from Irish companies who will describe successful case studies in importing from and investing in Korea.
A member of G20, South Korea’s economy is ranked 11th globally, yet in 2014 it was the world’s 5th largest exporters and 7th largest importer. This event promises to be a key networking opportunity for those looking to build networks in one of the world’s more innovative, advanced and open market economies.
