The key objective was to provide an effective communication channel and establish a single repository of all membership related data.

The Client

The American Chamber of Commerce Ireland is the primary collective voice of US companies located in Ireland.

Their mission is to promote a business environment that is attractive to US companies located in Ireland by representing their interests at a government level, in the media and by providing a forum through which ideas and information can be shared.

The Goal

The key objective of the website was to provide the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland with an effective communication tool with members nationwide and to establish a single repository of all membership related data.

Secondary objectives included providing access to press releases, events, reports and other information of public interest.

The Solution

From initial client meetings it became clear to us that the new website could offer the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland substantial time saving benefits. Tasks such as managing members, events and press releases could now be conducted via an online control panel replacing complex excel documents, written notes etc.

It also became evident that the needs of the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland would change over time as they continue to meet the needs of their members. To that end it was crucial that the website be built in a flexible manner.

We worked closely with the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland to build a bespoke Content Management System allowing the effective management of press releases, events, reports, membership information and newsletters.

On top of the Content Management System we implemented a clean HTML / CSS design with the key focus on usability and ease of navigation.

The Result

The American Chamber of Commerce Ireland website now acts an envaluable tool to Chamber staff from controlling membership, the distribution of news and events via email broadcasts / newsletters and encouraging membership participation.
