Dairy Connect Ireland
15-16 April 2026
The Irish dairy sector continues to face challenging issues.
Sustainability regulation, pricing, energy transition, processing efficiency, skills development and export volatility are no longer distant challenges – they shape commercial decisions now.
On 15–16 April at the BIA Innovator Campus, Athenry, Dairy Connect Ireland will bring together producers, processors, researchers, technologists, retailers and state agencies to address and discuss these issues directly.
This is not a trade show. It is a working forum focused on:
- Applied research and digitalisation in dairy processing
- Practical sustainability and bioeconomy solutions
- Market access and commercial resilience
- Connecting academic capability with real industry need
For universities, innovation centres and programme teams, this is an opportunity to ensure research moves beyond theory and into impact. For industry, it is a chance to shape the conversation rather than react to it.
If you are serious about strengthening the competitiveness of Irish dairy, this is where those discussions will happen.
