Learn. Do. Connect.
The NomadÉire Conference is designed around learning, doing and connecting — not sitting in a room listening to talks all day.
Across the three days, expect a mix of
Direct access to experienced founders, operators, creators and specialists through practical mentoring sessions.
Bring your questions, challenges and ideas into participant-led conversations.
Practical, hands-on sessions across the Founders / Business and Nomads / Creators tracks.
Different perspectives on business, technology, creativity, work and modern nomad life.
Put your idea in front of founders, investors, mentors and peers for feedback, visibility and opportunity.
Structured and informal opportunities to meet collaborators, customers, partners, friends and future teammates.
Because some of the best conversations happen after the formal sessions finish.
PROGRAMME AT A GLANCE
From opening and connection, through building and creating, to launching, scaling and taking your next step.
Arrive. Explore. Connect. Open the week together.
Tuesday is designed to open the experience gently: explore Kildare if you choose, check in from 14:00, meet the community, then officially open NomadÉire before moving into the evening social. The Content Creators Competition also kicks off on Tuesday, with networking games and activities helping people connect throughout the day.
Practical learning, mentorship and hands-on action.
Wednesday is the main build-and-create day: practical learning, mentorship, participant-led conversations and workshops designed to move ideas and projects forward. AI sessions run in parallel with the wider conference programme, so attendees can choose the sessions most useful to them before joining the evening social.
Turn ideas into action, opportunity and momentum.
Thursday is about taking the next step: strategy, growth, practical workshops and pitching, with the AI programme available in parallel. The Start-up Pitching Competition follows the workshop block before the closing ceremony, then everyone moves into the closing party and final evening social.
Draft programme: session timings and individual speakers may still be adjusted as the final conference schedule is confirmed.

Feed your plan into Claude and Lovable and instruct the AI to build it screen by screen.
Fix bugs, polish the design and put your prototype online for others to see.
Bring a laptop, a modern browser, a concrete product idea (problem, user, 2–3 core features) and ideally a Claude Pro account.
Practical value, meaningful connections and opportunities that continue beyond the conference room.
Practical sessions, workshops and mentorship you can actually apply.
Founders, creators, nomads, investors, operators and people building unconventional lives and businesses.
Take an idea from conversation to action through the conference and extended AI opportunities.
A customer, collaborator, investor, partner, friend — or simply the person who introduces you to them.
The conference connects into the wider Naas community, local businesses, culture and experiences.
You don't need to fit one label. If you're building something, creating something, working differently or designing a more flexible life — you're welcome here.
Sponsored €75 access is for eligible registered AI Programme participants.
