2.00" Some of the simplest (and most obvious on reflection) ideas are the best business ideas. For example, the social enterprise Experience Gaelic Games, that brings visitors to Ireland an opportunity to learn about and to play our national games - Gaelic football, hurling and handball - and all to the benefit of local GAA communities who deliver this half-day visitor experience. Co-founder Cormac O Donnachú joins TeamGBS (he's already very well-known in his own club, Na Fianna, in Dublin) to explain how it all works. He'd like our listeners to spread the word about what could also be a great corporate day out.
Cormac's 'hire in a heartbeat'? The man who brought O'Neills knicks to the world, Paul Mescal aka Connell (shame about the spelling!) from the hit TV show, Normal People.
24.00" Denis O'Flynn, former MD of Pernod Ricard in both Ireland and the UK, now a director of the Clonakilty Distillery tells TeamGBS why, with 41 distilleries already in business (there were only 4 or 5 distilleries left in the country when Denis joined Irish Distillers), that there's still plenty of room for growth in the market. Denis made it to the top of the tree in the booze business having left UCD with a science degree, applied for a job as a brewmaster, graduated to the HR department and headed on up the greasy pole...as you do. The Cork distillery is just about to have its own whiskey having passed its third birthday since it was distilled and may now be referred to as Irish whiskey. He tells liquor start-ups heading for the US to go to where the 'unloved' are.
Denis's 'hire in a heartbeat' - rugby star Joey Carbery - and he offers him a job on air when he ends his rugby career!
50.00" David Horgan, Chair, Petrel Resources, the Irish based explorer with interests in Iraq and Ghana, gives TeamGBS some hard-nosed insights into what could happen if Russia turns off the oil and gas taps. What he says is not easy listening, but it is absolutely essential to understand how bad (very!) things could get.
His 'hire in a heartbeat', Loman Begley (he'd hire him ahead of Elon Musk and/or Michael O'Leary). Find out why.
