Inspirefest 2015

In June, we are hosting the first event of its kind here in Dublin - Inspirefest 2015, when we will welcome some of the leading minds in science and tech from around the globe to the city for inspirational and mind-expanding talks and debate.

INSPIREFEST MAIN EVENT, JUNE 18-19, BORD GAIS ENERGY THEATRE
This main event takes place in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre at the heart of Dublin's Silicon Docks. It's a unique two-day event that offers fresh international perspectives on innovation, leadership and success in the areas of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). Turning the tables on traditional sci-tech events, these perspectives will be shared by inspirational women who are leaders in their field, and by advocates - male and female - of meaningful diversity in education, research, business and society. SEE FULL LINE-UP HERE

FRINGE FESTIVAL, JUNE 18-20, MERRION SQUARE PARK
Tickets to the main event give you access to an exciting evening Fringe Festival, based in Dublin's historic Merrion Square Park, designed for meaningful and relaxed networking, entertainment and...fun! Film premiers, Director Q&As, panel discussions and spoken word in our Headspace marquee, and a music line-up that showcases the best in alternative Irish music. SEE FRINGE LINE UP HERE
