Sport for Business In Conversation with Lynne Cantwell

In this week's Sport for Business Podcast we are chatting with Lynne Cantwell, the newly appointed Head of Women's Strategy at the Irish Rugby Football Union.

The conversation was recorded live at the Sport for Business Sporting Year Ahead 2025 with Teneo a few weeks back.

Lynne is a legend of the game here with Grand Slams and World Cup appearances to her credit.  She took that drive and leadership with her when she hung up her boots, Chairing the Sport Ireland Women in Sport Committee and working to develop the South African Women's Game before coming home for this new role.

She has an intelligence and an empathy that I think shone through in this chat and ineed whenever you have the pleasure to meet her.

We talk about the upcoming Guinness Six Nations, the Rugby World Cup in the autumn, the development of the game in Ireland and more.
