About the Conference

One of Ireland’s leading education and research conferences attracting 400+ participants from the education and research sector, such as ICT directors, managers, ICT & research staff, librarians, cyber security experts, and many more.

We began our collaboration with HEAnet in 2024, successfully managing their conference that year. Following the tremendous success of that event, we are now proudly organising the 2025 and 2026 editions.

What the client had to say

“We engaged Conference Organisers to manage the annual HEAnet Conference—our flagship client engagement event. With a 25-year history, we wanted to bring fresh energy and perspective to the event as we launched our new 5 year strategic plan.
Given our team’s busy workload, we needed a trusted partner to manage the event, allowing us to focus on our core responsibilities. Conference Organisers exceeded our expectations, demonstrating professionalism, reliability, and efficiency. Their proactive approach meant we never had to ask twice, and their service levels were outstanding. The result was a highly professional conference with record attendance (430+ attendees), delivered on budget and with excellent feedback from both attendees and our management team. We look forward to working with Conference Organisers again to create another fantastic event for our clients and partners this year. Thank you, Conference Organisers!”

— Aoife Mansergh, Client Engagement Manager, HEAnet CLG, Ireland's National Education and Research Network
