Welcome to episode 48 of the AI Ireland podcast, the show that explores the applications and research of Data Science, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence on the island of Ireland.
In the run-up to the 2019 AI Awards, our goal is to share with you the insights of this year’s sponsors to showcase the excellent work that is been done within AI in Ireland.
Today’s guest is Brian McElligott, who is a partner at Mason Hayes & Curran specialising in Intellectual Property. MHC are recognised as a world leader for technology law, specialising in solving complex problems and foreseeing the challenges that clients experience in this fast-moving sector. We are delighted to have Mason Hayes & Curran join us as one of our sponsors for next month’s 2019 AI Awards.
Earlier this summer, MHC launched their guide to Artificial Intelligence looking at different facets of this rapidly developing area, such as the use of AI in healthcare and fintech as well as how AI is already changing daily life. It also gives an overview of how the AI industry is developing in Ireland as well as how EU guidance and regulation is shaping up.
In the episode, Brian will discuss:
- MHC’s role in the tech world
