Dublin Tech Summit looks set to impress
by Startacus Admin
Dublin Tech Summit has announced its conference, keynotes, panel discussions and full lineup that will take place at The CCD, Dublin on February 15 & 16, 2017. Held across Dublin’s iconic silicon docks, the two-day summit is set to showcase everything Dublin has to offer as a global technology hub.
The two-day event (not to be confused with the Web Summit that left Dublin in 2015) is an opportunity for an expected 10,000 members of the tech community to experience a fab mix of topics and acquire first-hand knowledge from experts and entertaining speakers at the forefront of creative industries, innovation and business.
Entrepreneur, Angel Investor and DTS Keynote speaker, Gary Vaynerchuk built anticipation ahead of his appearance saying "[DTS] will likely be the only time I'll be in Ireland this year. I have a ton to talk about in 2017 Tech, the rest of the conference is going to be phenomenal."
Joining Gary amongst the world-class lineup, is Robothespian. The life sized humanoid robot designed for human interaction is fully interactive, multilingual, and user-friendly!
Other keynote speakers include: 
-
Cindy Gallop, CEO of IfWeRanTheWorld & MakeLoveNotPorn
-
Jimmy Chamberlin, Co-Founder & Drummer of The Smashing Pumpkins
-
Matthew Luhn, Story Veteran at Pixar
-
Maria Martinez, President, Global Customer Success at Salesforce

-
Chris Fabian, Senior Advisor on Innovation to the Executive Director at UNICEF
-

-
Mike Butcher, Editor At Large at TechCrunch
-
Bessie Lee, CEO of withinlink
The two-day conference will operate over seven stages, from Prism (Creativity), Business & Marketing, IoT, FinTech, MedTech, Fashion and Innovation - a fab achievement for an event in its inaugural year of operations.
Dublin Tech Summit CEO Noelle O’Reilly, had this to say about the event:
“I am so proud to have such an incredible team to work with. It’s a small team, but we have all worked tirelessly to ensure that we created a conference that Dublin will be proud of. To see it all come together now is truly breathtaking. We’ve brought together thought-leaders to speak on the biggest trends in technology across the board: consumer data, cyber security, artificial intelligence, technological advances in medicine, digital currency, the crossroads of fashion and technology. Every person and business is affected by technology and innovation—we wanted to acknowledge that with our lineup.”
The event will feature conference programming, demos, exhibitions, a StartUp competition and a variety of networking opportunities.
