Last week we hosted a special IMAGE Business Club event to help guests work smarter with the help of some of the most progressive AI professionals in the game.

On Wednesday, June 25, at The Dublin Royal Convention Centre, we hosted an IMAGE Business Club event all about working smarter and more intuitively in line with ever-evolving technology.

Guided by Maryrose Lyons, founder of the AI Institute, Lyons offered insights on the rapidly-progressing AI landscape in her keynote presentation, before discussing the topic further with Cera Ward, Managing Director, Large Customer Sales, Google Ireland; and Ian Walsh, co-founder, Orb Media – two key professionals leading the way in machine-assisted work.

Each is immersed in harnessing AI to its best advantage, and in conversation with IMAGE contributing editor Melanie Morris, they shared their unique perspectives, along with tips on how to make work more intuitive, efficient and enjoyable.

So, wherever you are on your AI journey, we want to help you level up on what’s possible and how to take that next step for a future-proofed, dynamic career.

The evening began as always with cocktails provided by Malfy Gin and complemented by Fevertree Tonic and a chance to network with other IMAGE Business Club peers at the Dublin Royal Convention Centre before getting on board with some smart moves for business into the future.

And as always, attendees departed with a luxury gift bag.
