Association Partner of the National Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition
We are now an official Supporting Association Partner for the National Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition across Ireland and the United Kingdom. This partnership matters because it puts us in the room with manufacturers who want to cut scrap, speed up planning, improve throughput, and strengthen supply chain resilience. It also matters because the event is run by good people who we’ve had the pleasure to work with as our team has contributed to this manufacturing community across multiple events and regions.

GoSmarter is built by Nightingale HQ, and GoSmarter is all about practical AI tools for metals manufacturers, from Mill Certificate Reader to Operations Management.
Why this matters to the GoSmarter team
This partnership builds on practical, on-the-ground engagement. We have contributed to conference events in Belfast, Cardiff, and Dublin, and we have seen the value of bringing manufacturers and technology teams into the same room to solve real operational problems.
This event is where production, operations, and supply chain teams look for practical wins. The conversations are about scrap reduction, faster planning cycles, steadier throughput, and stronger supply chain resilience. These are the same outcomes we target in live projects, including our work with Midland Steel.
The conference now includes 200+ exhibitors and 75+ speakers, creating a strong forum for manufacturers who need measurable improvements rather than vague ideas.
As CEO Ruth Kearney says:
“We are delighted to partner with this international manufacturing conference as we have contributed to their events in Belfast, Cardiff and Dublin. It is a key event for the manufacturing and technology communities and an important networking event where real business happens.”
2026 event details
According to Premier Publishing and Events, the National Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition 2026 returns to RDS Simmonscourt, Dublin, on Wednesday 27th May and Thursday 28th May 2026.
The two-day event will provide a focused forum on performance and competitiveness across Irish industry. It will also include a major exhibition and extensive networking opportunities across both days. As Colin Murphy, Founder of Premier Publishing and Events, explained in the press release, the conference is designed to keep discussions practical and grounded in what manufacturers are dealing with right now, from productivity and supply chain resilience to digitalisation and skills.
Looking ahead
We are excited to support this international manufacturing conference and to keep contributing practical tools that help manufacturers move faster, reduce waste, and stay competitive. If you are attending, book a demo with GoSmarter to meet the team and discuss your priorities for 2026.
