Irish craft brewers, Hope Beer, will be exhibiting at this year’s Biz Expo. Find out more about their business on 6th June at Citywest Conference Centre.

About Hope

Hope Beer is a range of premium craft beers brewed at Howth Junction, Dublin.

The Hope story started out at the end of 2015 with a core range of three beers brewed under contract, a plan to build a brewery and a dream to develop a first-class company.

Hope is owned by a group of old school-friends with a passion for beer and business.

What started out as a series of late-night kitchen table discussions is now an award-winning brewery with a rapidly expanding range of beers. Although Hope is the main brand, each beer has its own distinct name, story and taste experience.

We’re delighted to have Bofin Consultancy exhibit at our B2B networking event again. Learn more about their services on Thursday 6th June at the Citywest Conference Centre.

About Bofin Consultancy

Bofin Consultancy was born from a genuine passion for business, the industries and sectors worked with, sales & marketing. In addition, there was the determination to help businesses get things done and succeed. Mags Boland Murphy and the Bofin Consultancy team have worked with and continue to work with successful and focused business owners and managers, helping them to take their business to where they want it to be.

Where does the name Bofin come from? It comes from a beautiful island off the west coast of Ireland, Inish Bofin. The business origin is a little more detailed; Mags Boland Murphy decided after years of working with and for other business owners and helping businesses build, to bite the bullet and do what she had always wanted to do, work for herself. Mags also wanted to “be herself” in business and that was one key deciding factor for her to take that leap into the business abyss. It was a decision made at the height of a recession, with a small baby and a completely new geographical location….a moment of madness or inspiration!

And that is how it all started….with limited planning but lots of vision. Present day and the business is now a successful thriving and positive business consultancy focused on helping business owners build sustainable business.

At Bofin Consultancy, the focus is on increasing the revenue reach for successful business, on proactive planning and providing simple solutions to businesses who are serious about success and serious about planning for profit.

Her no nonsense approach helps clients to focus their passion on specific ventures and opportunities which deliver powerful growth and profoundly profitable businesses.

In her other life, Mags is a mother, wife and dog owner who enjoys working well and enjoying life. Mags has defied the odds in life and “done it anyway”.  She is passionate about helping businesses to succeed, staying true to herself, keeping it real and remembering to strive and succeed everyday. Secret skill…..has a head for phone numbers and names…comes from the days before the mobile!

Len Bosack and wife Sandy Lerner, both working for Stanford University, wanted to email each other from their respective offices, but technological shortcomings did not allow such communication. A technology had to be invented to deal with disparate local area protocols, and as a result of solving their challenge, the multiprotocol router was born.

In addition, they offer services in Optimization, Implementation, Training, Technical and much more.
