As the development of converging technologies blurs the traditional lines of sectors, the framework conditions necessary to facilitate convergence have far reaching and often complicated implications.

Converging technologies will be at the cutting edge of scientific discovery across a range of disciplines. At present, convergence is a relatively young concept and strategies are in formative stages. The market potential of convergence cannot be underestimated.

This event - which will be the most strategically important innovation conference this year in Ireland - will take place on the 17th and 18th of June 2008 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Dublin.

The programme includes:

  • Keynote addresses outlining the opportunity that cross sector technology convergence is opening up
  • National and international case studies
  • A profile of the Island's strategic capabilities and infrastructure
  • A partnering programme facilitated by experts EBD Group
  • Gala dinner, lunches and refreshments
  • High quality take away packs
