Dublin — Week of 31 Aug 2026

A paid one-day commercial workshop on building an AI SaaS product from scratch. Venue is disclosed to ticket holders.

A plain-English session from ISME on what AI actually means for Irish small and medium businesses — where it is already useful, where it is hype, and what a first practical step looks like. Aimed at owners and managers rather than engineers.

The Dublin Atlassian community on cutting delivery overhead — where AI genuinely removes work in test management and customer experience tooling, and where it just adds another dashboard.

A monthly, ticketless get-together to chat about data and analytics with your people, in a nice pub. Head upstairs to the second floor of The Lord Edward, facing Christchurch Cathedral, for pints, toasties and informal discussion about all things data — work, study and exploration. Each month opens with a round of introductions and topic suggestions, then the group digs into whatever's most popular. Technology-agnostic and welcoming to both newcomers and industry veterans; no registration needed, just show up (and support the bar). Note: the venue is up three flights of stairs and not step-free.

An informal morning meet-up for Dublin people working in and around AI — no talks, no pitches, just coffee and conversation. A low-commitment way into the local AI community.

The first of Coding Grace's five-part hands-on series pairing Python with physical electronics, starting from circuits with no prior hardware experience assumed. Diversity-friendly by design and free to attend.

A screening at the IFI of an AI-generated short in competition at the Higgsfield Festival, with the local AI video community.
