Pascal 2

The Neurological Alliance of Ireland (NAI) are delighted to welcome Pascal Derrien as their new Chair. 

Pascal was previously Vice Chair of NAI and is also CEO of the Migraine Association of Ireland.  Originally from France, Pascal landed on Irish shores in 1998. While he has worked in France for eight years, he has spent most of his professional life in Ireland working for large corporations, SMES, Start Ups, Not For Profit, Charities or Social Enterprises. The last few years he has been focusing on Social Enterprise and Charity projects leveraging and applying skills acquired in the corporate world for the last three decades.

Pascal is currently the CEO of Migraine Ireland and he is also a Board Member for IPPOSI and the Chairman of the Practitioner Council at SERI (Social Enterprise Republic Ireland).

Pascal has thanked the Board for their appointment and noted that he is looking forward to working with the Board and staff team as they look forward to another busy year in 2024. He paid a warm tribute to his predecessor as Chair, Mr Tom Scott and Board member Jimmy Smyth who both stepped down this year after a number of years of dedicated service to the Board.
