Trust in the Loop: Responsible AI Basecamp

A full-day working session at Croke Park from CeADAR, Ireland's Centre for Applied AI, recognised as an Associated Event of the Irish Presidency of the Council of the EU. The agenda is aimed at people who have to implement AI governance rather than comment on it: how Ireland's National AI Strategy balances adoption with responsible-AI frameworks, a deep dive on the EU AI Act and the toolkits, standards and supports available, industry case studies from SMEs, startups and larger tech companies, and research from the MANOLO project. Speakers come from government, agencies, innovation hubs, enterprises and public-sector bodies in Ireland and across Europe. Lunch and networking included. 08:30 to 14:30. Why go: the most practical AI Act room in Dublin this month, with the agency that funds a lot of Irish applied AI in the chair. Best for founders, CTOs and public-sector leads who need a compliance plan.
