Big Data Dublin 2026: The Edge of Innovation:
A Conference on AI and Data

Since its launch in 2016, Big Data Belfast has grown into the flagship conference of a wider international series — forming the foundation for Big Data events in Belfast, Dublin, and New York. It has become one of the UK and Ireland’s most respected data and AI gatherings, attracting world-class speakers and thousands of attendees from across industry, academia, and government.

Previous editions have featured leading voices from organisations such as Microsoft, Dell, EY, IBM, Kainos, and Wolfspeed, alongside innovative startups, researchers, and policy leaders — helping to shape a dynamic, cross-border ecosystem around data and AI.

Each year, the conference showcases how data-driven thinking is transforming the way we live, work, and innovate — from cutting-edge healthcare and climate tech to smart cities and generative AI — setting the tone and direction for the wider Big Data conference series.
