IN-Seattle (Irish Network Seattle: www.irishnetworkseattle.org) is a business and professional network open to all Irish, Irish-Americans and friends of Ireland living and working in the greater Seattle area. As part of the Irish Diaspora, we share the bonds of common heritage, identity, and connection with modern Ireland. Building on the premise that people connect through ideas, hopes, and actions, we’ve created a network with the goal of providing opportunities for our members to meet and build genuine relationships. In so doing, they support each other in their professional lives, while strengthening the economic, social and cultural ties between American and Irish businesses in Washington State and Ireland - and at the same time have some fun! Our members represent diverse professions and business backgrounds. Some are entrepreneurs with established successful businesses, others work in software and high-tech businesses for companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, NewBay, Google; in aerospace and engineering firms like Boeing; and in the arts, films, non-profits, education, science, healthcare, construction, finance, law, food, real-estate, self-owned small business – and the list keeps growing as our membership increases. Whether you are a sole proprietor, CEO or VP, mid-career, just starting off in your first job or getting your business off the ground, we welcome you to be a part of IN-Seattle.
