Since March 2020, Kilkenny Chamber has had to make changes to the way it runs its events. Due to Covid-19, we have been unable to host our many events, including our Chamber Chats and our AGM. These are now being held on line via Zoom, and recordings of all our Chats can be found here and on our Youtube Channel.
