Partnership For Business 2022
Winner
Embrace the Change
Drogheda & District Chamber, Love Drogheda BIDS, and The Mill Enterprise Hub have collaborated on a new strategy to encourage more startups, multinationals, and remote workers to base themselves in the wider Drogheda region. Due to the remote working shift, the chamber recognised the 15,000 commuters who previously left the region every day, would need support in transitioning. The ‘Drogheda Commuter Survey 2022’, and surveys carried out in 2019 and 2021 informed the campaign.
