Enterprise and Economic Development with David McWilliams

Following the huge success of the dlr Library Voices series, the Local Enterprise Office, DĂșn Laoghaire-Rathdown is delighted to collaborate with dlr Libraries to introduce a business and enterprise focussed series: dlr Business Voices...

This aims to introduce well-known speakers from the business world – nationally and internationally – to a wide audience, allowing them to hear first-hand accounts of business success, experience and trends.

David McWilliams is one of Ireland’s leading economic commentators and was the first economist to identify the Irish boom as nothing more than a credit bubble, warning of its collapse and the consequences for the country. His objective is to make economics as widely available and easily understandable on as many platforms as possible. He is recognised as one of the world’s Young Global Leaders by the World Economic Forum, Davos and is a regular contributor to Google’s famed Zeitgeist conference.

He is a writer, journalist, lecturer, broadcaster and documentary maker and has written four bestsellers, presented award-winning documentaries and brought a sell-out, one-man economics stand-up show to the stage at Ireland’s renowned national theatre, the Abbey.  He is very active on social media and in 2014 was ranked Ireland’s most influential Twitter user. He writes two economics columns a week in Irish newspapers, is a regular contributor to the Financial Times and the co-founder of the world’s only economics festival Kilkenomics - an eclectic combination of economics and stand-up comedy.
