We are delighted to be hosting our first Networking at Noon event of 2019 in Glandore’s New Cork Office Space on Tuesday 12^th March.

Set in the heart of Cork’s central business district, Glandore’s newest workspace has fully-fitted, flexible workspace for the companies and individuals.

Take a break from your desk and make some new connections while checking out the social, meeting and event space on offer at City Quarter.

Predictably we report a decrease in confidence reported by businesses from 96% in Q3 to 92% in Q4.

In the context of the heightening uncertainty with our closest trade neighbour this is of little surprise. With the March 29th exit on the horizon and with the prospect of a no deal being elevated as a real possibility, business is cautious and rightly so.

Though consistently at the higher end of the scale, Cork business sentiment is overall in a very healthy position
