InterTradeIreland’s All-Island Venture Capital Conference returns to Dublin next month. The one-day conference on The Investment Landscape in 2025 will take place in Croke Park on Wednesday March 5th from 9am to 3pm. A limited number of places are still available.
Attended by over 600 delegates in 2024, the conference has a reputation of a must-attend event for early-start businesses. The conference provides opportunities to gain in-depth insights from the venture capital community, learn from the experience of fellow founders and build networks.
Keynote speakers at this year’s conference include Marina Gorey, High-Performance Culture Coach and former Head of People at Seedcamp, and co-founder of SuperAwesome, one of the UK’s fastest-growing tech companies (2018), acquired by Epic Games. She will be joined by Jimmy Martin, Co-Founder and CEO of AMCS Group, a market leader in performance sustainability, enabling resource-intensive industries to boost sustainability and profitability.
Other notable speakers include:
- DC Cahalane, Venture Partner at Sure Valley Ventures (SVV), focusing on identifying cutting-edge technology start-ups and guiding private investors toward AI-driven innovations via SVV’s Irish fund
- Will Bennett, representing Seedcamp, Europe’s premier seed-stage fund
- Dylan Scully, Partner at Frontline, dedicated to supporting early-stage founders across Europe.
The conference will also feature sessions on angel networks and seed investment schemes, with insights from Seedlegals, Awaken Angels, Movetru, and internet entrepreneur and angel investor Andrea Sinclair.
Hosting the event will be Susan Hayes Culleton, award-winning author, speaker, and co-founder of The Positive Economist.
I’m thrilled to be part of InterTradeIreland’s All-Island Venture Capital Conference. I’m excited to share insights from my experience in fostering high-growth environments and scaling high performance teams, as an operator and advisor to early-stage companies. These events provide an invaluable platform for connection and the exchange of experiences, I'm looking forward to gaining new insights as we look ahead to the investment landscape in 2025.
Marina Gorey, Former Head of People at Seedcamp
This event is a must for early-stage businesses and entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs learn from one another while having access to the entire investment community across the island. This year’s conference coincides with a week that will celebrate International Women’s Day, I’m particularly proud that so many female leaders will be featured in our programme and a very warm welcome to all female founders and investors.
Margaret Hearty, InterTradeIreland Chief Executive
