*Meitheal /ˈmʲɛhəl̪ˠ/ is an Irish word, meaning a team, a working group, or a gathering of people who meet to share their knowledge and skills in a collective effort, to ensure that all succeed in achieving their goals. The word’s origins lie in the ancient rural Irish tradition of neighbours gathering together to collaborate on tasks, to save the harvests, and to work together for the greater good of the community. All animation industry professionals are welcome to join in an array of talks, panels, and demonstrations of some of the best new technologies in the industry. The primary goal of Animation Ireland Meitheal is to inform and inspire professionals about the current developments in the animation industry, both in Ireland and internationally. Following our highly successful pilot summit at the IAA 2023, we are delighted that Animation Ireland Meitheal will be back and will again take place in The Galway Bay Hotel Salthill on May25th 2024. Our annual get-together in May will be full of great content, great networking, creative and practical information on how to help businesses survive and thrive – plus opportunities to meet buyers, potential business partners or clients. So join us at this fantastic event this coming May.
