The German-Irish Business Forum 2026 will take place on 26 May at the Herbert Park Hotel.

This year’s theme is “AI for Business: Real Adoption, Real Leadership”, with a focus on how businesses can move beyond discussion and begin adopting AI in practical, effective ways.

The conference will explore a range of topics, including a dedicated SME-focused session on how smaller businesses can move from confusion to competitive advantage using accessible, high-impact AI tools. The event will also provide important insights into the EU AI Act and what the new regulations mean for businesses using AI technology.

In addition, the forum will offer a valuable opportunity for Dublin businesses to connect with German partners, AI experts and industry leaders.
