OpenAI presents OpenAI for Ireland, an initiative to help Irish SMEs, founders, and young developers use AI to grow, innovate, and build products from Ireland for Europe and the world. What does this mean in practice and how could it affect you if you run a startup or work at a small business? I'll explain it clearly and without jargon.

OpenAI launches 'OpenAI for Ireland' focused on SMEs and entrepreneurs

The initiative was announced in Dublin by Jason Kwon (Chief Strategy Officer at OpenAI) together with ministers and local representatives: Jack Chambers, Peter Burke, Niamh Smyth, Patrick Walsh (Dogpatch Labs) and Tom McCarthy (Patch). It's a collaboration between OpenAI, the Government of Ireland, Dogpatch Labs and Patch to accelerate responsible AI adoption across the country.

The goal is simple: help Ireland turn its digital edge into sustained leadership in safe and innovative AI, with an initial focus on SMEs, founders and young creators.
