The 2026 Ireland Gateway To Europe trade mission brought together leaders from across industry and international organisations in Washington, Delaware and Philadelphia, creating conversations and relationships that are continuing beyond the programme itself.
Looking back on the opening day of the trip, FKM CEO Matt Mohan and IGTE co-founder Adie McGennis joined Shane Coleman on The Hard Shoulder to discuss the vision behind IGTE, what participants gain from the experience, and how the programme has evolved over the past 14 years.
Matt also spoke about the work FKM delivers within the built environment sector and the importance of building lasting international relationships through initiatives like this.
Thank you to our partners Aer Lingus, FROSCH Ireland, The Currency, Newstalk, Jess Kelly, World Trade Center Dublin, Washington DC Delaware for their continued support throughout this year’s programme.
