GoSmarter in Ireland

Nightingale HQ works closely with manufacturers and business networks across the island of Ireland, north and south. That’s Wales-Ireland trade missions, Enterprise Ireland Digitalisation Vouchers, and a standing seat at the conferences where Irish manufacturing actually talks shop.

Irish and Northern Irish manufacturers face the same pressures as everyone else in the sector:

  • Mill certificates and compliance paperwork that eat the shift
  • Legacy systems that don’t talk to each other
  • A tight labour market with no spare hands for admin

We’ve partnered with Irish manufacturers such as Midland Steel and Shabra Plastics on digital transformation, spoken at the Conference on Digitalisation of Manufacturing in Limerick and the National Manufacturing & Supply Chain Conference in Dublin, and worked with the Irish Centre for Business Excellence Network (ICBE) and the Irish Digital Engineering and Advanced Manufacturing Cluster (IDEAM).

Posts here cover that work: partnerships, conference highlights, funding programmes, and press coverage of GoSmarter’s growth across Irish and Northern Irish markets.

“Our aim is to help companies overcome the core blockers to successful AI adoption, and rather than doing this individually which would take forever, Steph developed a platform that any company can access to get up to speed,” says Kearney.
