What Our Members Say

“If you are an Irish company looking to build relationships in the United States, the Boston Irish Business Association should be one of your first ports of call.

“We were delighted to take part in the BIBA St. Patrick's season Company Showcase. For Irish startups looking to build connections in the United States, BIBA creates a genuinely valuable platform. The event brought together an impressive network of Irish founders, business leaders and supporters of Irish enterprise in Boston. One aspect we particularly appreciated was the encouragement for companies to clearly state their “asks” — it moves the conversation beyond introductions and towards meaningful connections that can help businesses grow.

“BIBA provides an incredibly welcoming and supportive entry point for Irish companies beginning to explore the US market.”

Breda O'ReganCEO, Lia Eyecare

“Thank you so much for your infectious enthusiasm, connections and for putting together such an inspiring program. Connecting these people in a meaningful way to change the lives for the better for people all over the world, is a noble calling indeed!”

Lester FehrCEO, ARC Tectonics
