Description

MII Cork’s January event in association with Cork Chamber, will have Paulo Alves, Managing Director of BMW Group Ireland speak to the business and marketing community of Cork in January giving insights into the BMW Group and their Innovation Strategy with a customer-centric focus.  

“One of our brand values is innovation unless you live up to what you preach.  BMW is about pushing the boundaries, looking to the future and making sure that we are there."
