National AI Studio for Manufacturing
What is the AI Studio?
The AI Studio at the AIM Centre is Ireland’s first national AI Studio dedicated to helping manufacturing SMEs adopt and leverage artificial intelligence and automation technologies. Our mission is to drive innovation, improve productivity, and future-proof businesses through practical, hands-on AI based solutions.

Real-world applications tailored for manufacturing, providing hands-on access to AI applications in predictive maintenance, energy optimisation, and quality control, allowing businesses to witness firsthand the benefits of AI integration.
