Shanghai and Dublin Tech Forums Highlight AI and Industry Innovation

The 2026 Conference on the Integrated Development of Technological Innovation and Industry convened in Shanghai on July 28. Speakers from media, finance and securities sectors discussed strengthening China’s innovation ecosystem, linking technology with industry, and the role of capital markets and government‑backed funds in providing patient capital for R&D.

The Dell Technologies Forum 2026 will be held at the Convention Centre Dublin on September 15. The event will bring together business and technology leaders to examine how organisations can scale AI, modernise infrastructure and build resilient digital environments. Dell executives will present live demos, and speaker Pico Lopes, captain of Shamrock Rovers and Cape Verde footballer, will share insights on peak performance.

Both forums underscore a growing focus on integrating advanced technology, especially artificial intelligence, with industry and capital‑market structures to drive future growth.
