OUR EVENTS
This year marked the inaugural Summit of the Cities. For the first time, civic leaders from all 12 cities across Ireland came together to share knowledge, exchange ideas and explore opportunities to collaborate. It was the beginning of a stronger, more connected conversation about the future of our cities.
The Belfast Summit asks how we can make Belfast one of the best small cities in Europe to live, work and socialise. It brings fresh thinking from cities around the world into conversation with the people who know Belfast best, tackling challenges and uncovering opportunities for its future.
Derry Summit explores what’s next for Derry and the North West, with community at the heart of the conversation. From the city’s cultural strengths and growth of its university to new investment across the region, it brings together the people and ideas helping to turn these opportunities into lasting progress.
About Us
-
We develop and deliver engaging in-person events that explore what makes our cities unique, the challenges they face and the opportunities ahead. By bringing together global experts, local voices and civic leaders, we create meaningful spaces for dialogue, collaboration and knowledge sharing - connecting people, challenging ideas and sparking real change.
-
We deliver two distinct types of city-focused events.
City Summits bring people together to explore the identity, opportunities and challenges of individual cities. From Belfast to Derry/Londonderry, each summit is shaped around the unique character of its city, creating a platform for local voices, civic leaders and international perspectives.
Summit of the Cities takes that conversation further, connecting cities to share ideas, experiences and opportunities. In 2026, we delivered the inaugural Summit of the Cities in Belfast, bringing together all 12 cities across the island of Ireland for the first time in a landmark gathering of city leaders and voices from across the island.
Summit of the Cities returns in 2027, continuing to build a network of connected cities and creating new opportunities for collaboration, knowledge sharing and collective action.

We bring together city councillors, PR experts, public affairs advisors and event specialists, giving us a unique understanding of the issues shaping our cities and the people driving change.
Our years of experience delivering city-focused events means we know how to turn real-world challenges into compelling conversations, bringing together global expertise and local insight around the themes that matter most.
