Everything from microchips inserted at birth to predict medical illnesses to self-drive cars with workstations were posited as possible aspects of life in this country in half a century’s time.

The brainchild of John Hartnett of the Irish Technology Leadership Group (ITLG), the event was designed to help in the development of key skills needed to meet the requirements of a competitive economy.
