Dublin's City of Science Bid

Dr. Patrick Cunningham, Chief Scientific Advisor to the Irish Government headed a high-level delegation which made a 2-day visit to Brussels last month to launch the bid for Dublin to host the Euroscience Open Forum 2012 ‘European City Of Science’. The visit afforded the opportunity of a “back the bid” reception organised by Enterprise Ireland to brief the Irish community - particularly those engaged in EU research and technology activities - on the campaign’s ambitions and how they can help it to succeed. It also allowed a platform to update international science stakeholders on important developments in Ireland supporting a growing knowledge economy rooted in science.
