🇮🇪 Tech Events in Ireland
Ireland's tech-event calendar centers on Dublin, home to the European HQs of most major US cloud providers and a deep meetup circuit across software, DevOps, data, and product. Satellite communities continue to grow in Cork and Galway. Active cities on Brainberg right now include Dublin, Dublin 12, Galway, Dublin 8, The Municipal District of Newcastle West, Cork, Blanchardstown, and Dublin 4. Brainberg aggregates listings from multiple event platforms and community calendars into a single European feed, so the full schedule for the country shows up in one chronological view instead of spread across separate platforms.

MPP Hackathon Dublin: Build something AI agents can pay for
Dublin, 🇮🇪 Ireland
90 minutes. One idea. How far can you take it?
Join us at Stripe’s Dublin office on 10 November for a fast-paced, hands-on hackathon exploring the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP).
The challenge: build an API or service that AI agents can pay to use. Think a useful data feed, a clever developer tool, or a niche service that solves one problem brilliantly. With MPP, an agent can request a resource, pay for it, and get the result directly over the web.
You’ll have 90 minutes to turn your idea into a working prototype, experiment with payments, and build alongside other curious developers. Keep it small, try something unexpected, and see what you can ship before the clock runs out.
Whether you’re excited about AI agents, APIs, or new ways to get paid for what you build, this is a chance to get hands-on.
The details
- When: 10 November
- Where: Stripe office, Dublin
- Duration: 90 minutes
- Snacks: Provided 🍿
- Bring: Your laptop, charger, and curiosity
Bring an idea. Grab a snack. Build something worth paying for.

"Do No Harm" Product Ethics Workshop
Galway, 🇮🇪 Ireland
itag’s Product Management Forum and Product Management meetup Galway Presents: "Do No Harm" Product Ethics Workshop
Is your product causing harm you haven't accounted for?
AI is accelerating product development at an unprecedented pace, but our ability to anticipate the ethical consequences hasn't kept up.
For product teams, good intentions are no longer enough. Regulatory scrutiny around responsible technology is intensifying, reputational risk from harmful products is growing, and the cost of identifying ethical failures post-launch far outweighs addressing them early. Ethical design isn't a values exercise, it's a risk management discipline.
This session is about putting that into practice.
Working in small groups, you'll apply a real ethical design tool to a real product - surfacing harm, unintended consequences, and blind spots that traditional product processes miss.
Tools include Spotify's own Ethics Assessment, the Black Mirror Brainstorm, Provocatype, Dichotomy Mapping, and more. Each table works with a different tool and a different product, before the room comes together to compare findings.
No prior knowledge of ethics or ethical design required. These tools are built to be picked up without specialist training - you'll leave knowing whether that's actually true.
Come ready to ask the questions nobody on your team has thought to ask yet.

TALK 1: Airgapped System | Not a problem. Lessons Developing Malware for a NATO Exercise by Sabastian Hague
Step inside the development process behind Exercise Locked Shields 2026, the largest and most complex cyber live-fire exercise in the world
Centri had the honour of supporting Locked Shields by developing realistic technical content for some of the most capable cyber operators globally. This session explores the challenge of building scenarios that are credible, relevant, and difficult enough to test defenders operating at enterprise and nation-state level.
You’ll hear how we approached the design of advanced exercise content, the considerations involved in developing realistic adversary behaviour, and how we balanced technical depth, safety, and learning value.
The session will also walk through one of the more intricate malware components developed for the exercise. Rather than relying on obvious destructive behaviour, this tooling was designed around specific operational objectives, showing how subtle functionality can be harder for commercial detection tooling to identify.
Can malware be effective without being noisy? Can highly specific functionality create a bigger detection challenge than overtly malicious behaviour?
Join us and find out.
TALK 2: Adopting AI for Threat Defense: What Actually Works (and What’s Still Hype) by Saurabh Khadtare
A lot of people in security are understandably skeptical of “AI” right now. Marketing slides promise fully autonomous SOC's, while real defenders are still drowning in huge alerts and brittle detection logic. At the same time, attackers are already using automation and AI‑adjacent tooling to scale phishing, brute forcing, credential abuse, and exploitation, so a purely manual defensive approach is becoming unrealistic.
In this talk, I’ll share practical lessons from working as a security engineer and Pentester on how AI is actually starting to help with threat defense, and where it absolutely should not be trusted on its own. I’ll break “AI for defense” into three buckets: classical ML/UEBA and anomaly detection, AI‑powered SOC automation for triage and noise reduction, and LLM‑based that help with summarizing incidents, writing queries/rules, and translating technical findings for non‑technical stakeholders. For each bucket, I’ll walk through concrete workflows and examples (using redacted or synthetic data) showing what sucked before, what AI does better, and what still needs a human in the loop.
I’ll also cover the major limitations and risks: hallucinations, weak multi‑step reasoning, prompt injection, and new attack surfaces introduced by LLMs and vendor tools. The goal is to give the audience a realistic blueprint for where AI can safely augment defenders today, and where “AI‑only” approaches are still pure hype.
We will also have a seat for the CPTA | Certified Penetration Testing Associate to give away on the night

Nov 2026: 10th Anniversary Panel Session
Waterford, 🇮🇪 Ireland
Meetup – Thursday, 12th November 2026 | 7:00 PM
Venue: Waterford Treasures Museum (X91 K10E)
In November 2016, Waterford Tech Meetup held its first gathering, bringing together people working in tech to share ideas, experiences and make connections.
A decade later, the technology landscape looks very different. We've seen massive advances in AI, changes in how and where we work, the emergence of new technologies and industries, and plenty of predictions about the future - some more accurate than others! To celebrate 10 years of Waterford Tech Meetup this November, we're doing something a little different.
Instead of our usual two-speaker format, we're bringing together a special panel featuring some familiar faces from our Meetups over the years. Together, they'll reflect on how the industry has evolved since 2016, explore the opportunities and challenges facing the sector today, and share their thoughts on where technology might take us over the next decade.
Meet our anniversary panel:
- Marco Troisi – Founder / Consultant, O2A Labs
- John Frizelle - Founder, Alludium; Partner, SVV
- Sophie Renshaw - Senior AI Quality Engineer, Workhuman
- Colm Dunphy – Lecturer / Researcher
- Richard Rodger - CEO, Voxgig
And we'd love you to help shape the discussion!
We'll be inviting our Meetup community to suggest questions and topics they'd like the panel to explore so keep an eye out for a short survey coming your way next week, where you'll have the chance to tell us what you'd most like to hear about. We'll use your suggestions to help guide the conversation on the night.
We look forward to celebrating with you!
With thanks to our sponsors: Waterford Local Enterprise Office, ServisBOT, Red Hat and Bluefin.
