The School of MPO Welcomes International Delegates for the 35th Annual NICE Network Meeting in Dublin
The TU Dublin School of Management, People and Organisations at Technological University Dublin recently hosted the 35th Annual Meeting of the New Initiatives and Challenges in Europe (NICE) Network, welcoming 40 international delegates from 22 global universities to our Grangegorman Campus.
The NICE Network is an established inter-university network comprising more than 40 partner institutions that meet annually to exchange ideas, develop joint projects, undertake collaborative research, and build long-term international partnerships.
As our School continues to strengthen its international affiliations and profile, hosting this annual meeting provided a fantastic opportunity to showcase TU Dublin, strengthen existing partnerships and develop new international connections.
The three-day programme began with a cultural excursion to Glendalough in County Wicklow, followed by two days of presentations, interactive workshops, institutional spotlights and plenary sessions at our Grangegorman Campus. Delegates also enjoyed an evening of traditional Irish entertainment at Celtic Nights.
TU Dublin has been a member of the NICE Network since 2017, and this was the first time the Annual Meeting had been hosted in Ireland since 2003!
A sincere thank you to all our international delegates, speakers, colleagues, and partners who helped make the event such a success.
A special word of thanks goes to Bill O'Mahony, Operations Lead in the TU Dublin School of Management, People and Organisations, who led the planning, coordination, and delivery of the three-day event, from initial preparations through to its successful delivery. Thanks also to Carles Castro Prat for his valuable support and assistance throughout the event.
We look forward to building on the connections made and continuing our engagement with the NICE Network, with the next Annual Meeting taking place at Windesheim University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands in 2027.
