The 2026 Ireland Gateway To Europe trade mission brought together leaders from across industry and international organisations in Washington, Delaware and Philadelphia, creating conversations and relationships that are continuing beyond the programme itself.

Looking back on the opening day of the trip, FKM CEO Matt Mohan and IGTE co-founder Adie McGennis joined Shane Coleman on The Hard Shoulder to discuss the vision behind IGTE, what participants gain from the experience, and how the programme has evolved over the past 14 years.

Matt also spoke about the work FKM delivers within the built environment sector and the importance of building lasting international relationships through initiatives like this.

Thank you to our partners Aer Lingus, FROSCH Ireland, The Currency, Newstalk, Jess Kelly, World Trade Center Dublin, Washington DC Delaware for their continued support throughout this year’s programme.

International Women’s Day | Mimosa Brunch

International Women’s Day gives businesses a moment to pause and recognise the women within their teams. This week at FKM, that meant taking time out for a team brunch and acknowledging the contribution of the women who drive our business forward.

The conversation, though, should always extend further than one day a year.

Women represent roughly 12% of the construction workforce in Ireland. At FKM, that figure stands at 39%, with many in leadership roles across operations, finance, design and communications, meaning the people shaping our projects and signing off on decisions reflect a broader mix of experience than the industry average.

The women across the business are not highlighted for a day and forgotten. They are part of the leadership, the delivery teams and the culture that sustains our company throughout the year.

Today and everyday, we are grateful for the expertise, judgement and commitment the women in our team bring to FKM, and for the role they continue to play in strengthening the industry as a whole.

So yes, they deserved a mimosa!

Planning a fitout is rarely a small decision. For most organisations, it sits alongside wider conversations about growth, cost control and how teams are expected to work over the coming years.
In Ireland, these decisions often come with additional layers. Many workplaces are housed in older buildings, city centre locations can limit access and programme flexibility, and businesses frequently need to remain operational while work is carried out. These factors shape how a fit-out must be approached from the outset.



Timing and coordination are key. Delays to early decisions can quickly impact programme and cost, particularly where building services upgrades or compliance requirements are involved. According to industry data, late stage changes can add up to 20 percent to overall project costs once work is underway.

Sustainability is another growing consideration. With rising energy costs and Ireland’s climate targets, fitouts are increasingly expected to improve efficiency and extend the life of existing spaces. Retaining usable materials, upgrading services and designing for flexibility can deliver long term value, but only when planned early.

For organisations planning a fitout, the most successful projects tend to be those where these factors are considered together. Understanding the building, the people using it and the realities of delivery helps avoid unnecessary disruption and supports better outcomes.

This is the level of thinking FKM brings to every fitout project.
