2009 heralds a year of economic uncertainty. Will it be the new frontier for the Irish economy that we all hope for? This is the issue that the 27th Annual UCC Commerce Conference hopes to address at the conference titled “2009, Turning Change into Opportunity; Our Next Steps.”
Taking this theme as the premise for the Conference, the UCC Commerce Society and Conference Committee hope that this will help to challenge people’s perceptions of the economy for 2009.
