Social Pics: Our members-only Christmas celebration with Chupi Sweetman

This Tuesday marked the culmination of another successful year of IMAGE Business Club events with our guest Chupi Sweetman helping us to end things on a wonderfully festive note.

When? 

The exclusive IMAGE Business Club-members-only event took place on Tuesday, November 28 at 6pm. 

Where was it?

The Westbury Hotel, Balfe Street, Dublin 2

Why were we there?

Our final Business Club Live event of the year, it was a very special evening of celebration. Saying goodbye to 2024 – another fast-paced year of change and business evolution – together we raised a glass to toast all of your dedication, hard work and many successes over the past 12 months. 

As with all our events, the focus was on networking and the festivities kicked off with cocktails and canapés before guests were ushered into the main hall for a captivating conversation between IMAGE contributing editor, Melanie Morris and Chupi Sweetman, founder and CEO of Chupi. 

A jewellery designer and creative entrepreneur whose outstanding year has included a rebrand, further expansion into the UK, and most recently, the opening of a stunning new flagship boutique on Clarendon Street, Chupi shared her wisdom with us as she looked back on the many standout experiences and learnings that were part and parcel of her success. 

After a decade of working in retail, for commercial giants including Topshop, Chupi founded her eponymous jewellery line in 2013 and she hasn’t looked back since. Over the past 10 years, her creative and strategic vision has scaled the business from a one-woman operation to a luxury jewellery brand with a presence in over 70 countries worldwide. 

Donning a full-length sequin gown and a coordinating pair of Nicki Hoyne shoes, I think you’ll all agree that Chupi was the perfect person to help us embrace the sparkle of party season. 

Attendees departed with gift bag from Ultraceuticals which included their Ultra B² Hydrating Serum (worth €70.50) and a €100 Chupi Gift Coin.

Who was there? 

Among those in attendance were personal stylist and inspirational speaker Máirín Ní Bheacháin, Niamh Ennis, Ireland’s leading change and transformation coach, and yoga teacher, Ayurveda nutritionist and retreat host, Margaret Young.
