Irish CEOs are entering 2026 with urgency and focus, responding to rising cost pressures, geopolitical uncertainty, and accelerating expectations for transformation, according to the latest EY CEO Outlook, which surveyed 1,200 executives globally – including 40 leading CEOs in Ireland. Irish companies are transforming at a fast pace, with 50% of CEOs reporting their organisations are already in significant enterprise-wide transformation programmes and a further 50% planning to initiate one in the year ahead. These programmes are increasingly focused on reshaping the core of the business. In Ireland, 50% of CEOs cite cost reduction as a key priority; 46% are prioritising improvements in customer engagement; 44% are working to accelerate progress on sustainability; and 20% are driving operational optimisation and productivity, including digitisation, as a top priority. The research also shows that Irish CEOs believe that transformation is no longer optional but essential, as Irish organisations seek to strengthen performance and build more resilient, future-ready business models. CEOs are acting with urgency amid mounting pressures Rising costs, geopolitical friction, and regulatory complexity are intensifying operating pressures for Irish businesses. 65% of CEOs expect operating costs to rise this year, reflecting ongoing wage inflation, energy volatility and increased regulatory demands. Geopolitical uncertainty is also reshaping strategic decisions: 46% have stopped or delayed an investment due to geopolitical or trade dynamics, 28% accelerated one, 5% exited a country, and 40% shifted suppliers to different markets. These shifts demonstrate how CEOs are balancing caution with decisive action as they prepare their organisations for a more unpredictable economic landscape. Helena O'Dwyer, Partner and Head of Strategy at EY Parthenon Ireland, said: "Irish CEOs are dealing with rising costs, geopolitical uncertainty and increasing regulatory demands, yet they are responding with real urgency. Leaders are pushing ahead with major transformation programmes, from adopting AI to strengthening cyber security and redesigning how their organisations work. Their focus is simple and practical: reduce costs, drive growth and improve productivity through smarter use of technology. It is a challenging environment, but Irish businesses are showing strong momentum, and many are already seeing the benefits." AI has moved from experimentation to core strategy AI is also at the centre of Irish CEOs' strategic agendas. 30% of leaders say their AI initiatives have delivered significantly above expectations, with another 55% reporting results somewhat above expectations. Early benefits identified are emerging across customer operations, software development, risk and compliance automation and forecasting. Looking ahead, 98% expect AI to have a transformative or significant impact on their business model within two years, with generative AI (48%) and machine learning (45%) expected to play the largest roles. Cybersecurity remains the biggest concern when prioritising AI investments, cited by 30% of Irish CEOs. New skills are becoming essential for performance AI and digital transformation are also reshaping workforce plans. Despite cost pressures, 60% of CEOs plan to maintain or increase hiring in 2026, particularly in roles that support AI, data, cyber and technology integration. Organisations are accelerating reskilling and redeployment to meet transformation demands. Priority skills include data and AI, cyber resilience, cloud engineering, transformation, and regulation. Carol Murphy, Partner and Head of Markets at EY Ireland, said: "Irish CEOs see the scale of change ahead and are acting now. Many are already deep into major transformation programmes, and almost all expect AI to reshape how their organisations work within the next two years. The focus is on practical steps, adopting the right technologies, strengthening skills and forming par...

Every time you ask a question of your AI assistant, it gets sent to a data center, where the response is generated before getting sent back to you. These data centers are critical to the AI revolution. The biggest data-center campuses occupy dozens of acres, span millions of square feet, and cost billions of dollars.And they wouldn't exist without the work of lawyers. For insight into the complex transactions that bring these data centers into existence, I interviewed Steven Messina, a longtime partner at Skadden Arps and global head of the firm's banking group (soon to be renamed the finance group, reflecting the evolution of the sector beyond commercial banks).In our conversation, Steve and I discussed how these billion-dollar data centers get financed. But we covered a number of other topics as well, including the evolution of both the finance industry and Biglaw over the past three decades.

Uncertainty reigned early this year with the inauguration of President Donald Trump and his threats to impose tariffs and slash prescription drug prices. But as players in the biopharma industry have gotten a better handle on the impact of these measures and the overall investment landscape, valuations have become more predictable and dealmakers have focused on larger, lower-risk acquisitions. The recent trends bode well for the business development landscape in 2026 and beyond. In this week’s episode of “The Top Line,” Arda Ural, EY Americas life sciences sector leader, joins Fierce Pharma’s Kevin Dunleavy to discuss the dealmaking landscape in the biopharma industry.

My guest today is Ari Emanuel. Ari runs one of the most influential portfolios in global sports, entertainment, and media. He oversees TKO, which includes the UFC and WWE, serves as the Executive Chairman of WME Group, and recently founded MARI, a new company focused on global events and live experiences. At the center of this conversation is Ari's anti-AI bet: as AI makes digital content cheaper and everyday work more automated, he believes the value will increasingly concentrate in live and physical experiences. He explains how he's building his portfolio around that belief, what defines a great live experience, and how he thinks about AI's impact on content and IP. Ari is best known as a dealmaker, and he shares the principles behind his success – relentless follow-up, over-communication, velocity, and an obsession with making things happen – and how those things become the operating system he uses today. If you're listening to this, I recommend watching the video of this interview. Ari's energy is constant and visceral, and gives a different dimension to this episode.

This episode is sponsored by Francisco Partners and Platinum Equity Dealmakers had high hopes for 2025, expecting the year to deliver a welcoming environment for M&A. Instead, uncertainty about tariffs and other issues stopped them in their tracks mid-year, and deal volume dropped. Exits have been especially challenging.

This episode features Rob Toews from Radical Ventures and Ari Morcos, Head of Research at Datology AI, reacting to Andrej Karpathy's recent statement that AGI is at least a decade away and that current AI capabilities are "slop." The discussion explores whether we're in an AI bubble, with both guests pushing back on overly bearish narratives while acknowledging legitimate concerns about hype and excessive CapEx spending. They debate the sustainability of AI scaling, examining whether continued progress will come from massive compute increases or from efficiency gains through better data quality, architectural innovations, and post-training techniques like reinforcement learning. The conversation also tackles which companies truly need frontier models versus those that can succeed with slightly-behind-the-curve alternatives, the surprisingly static landscape of AI application categories (coding, healthcare, and legal remain dominant), and emerging opportunities from brain-computer interfaces to more efficient scaling methods. (0:00) Intro(1:04) Debating the AI Bubble(1:50) Over-Hyping AI: Realities and Misconceptions(3:21) Enterprise AI and Data Center Investments(7:46) Consumer Adoption and Monetization Challenges(8:55) AI in Browsers and the Future of Internet Use(14:37) Deepfakes and Ethical Concerns(26:29) AI's Impact on Job Markets and Training(31:38) Google and Anthropic: Strategic Partnerships(34:51) OpenAI's Strategic Deals and Future Prospects(37:12) The Evolution of Vibe Coding(44:35) AI Outside of San Francisco(48:09) Data Moats in AI Startups(50:38) Comparing AI to the Human Brain(56:07) The Role of Physical Infrastructure in AI(56:55) The Potential of Chinese AI Models(1:03:15) Apple's AI Strategy(1:12:35) The Future of AI Applications With your co-hosts: @jacobeffron - Partner at Redpoint, Former PM Flatiron Health @patrickachase - Partner at Redpoint, Former ML Engineer LinkedIn @ericabrescia - Former COO Github, Founder Bitnami (acq'd by VMWare) @jordan_segall - Partner at Redpoint

Our teacher today is Jan Mohr, CEO of Chapters Group, a publicly traded serial acquisition holding company with ambitions of becoming one of Europe's technology champions. Chapters' origins date back to a small software startup founded near Frankfurt in 1998. Twenty years later, the core business was sold to a strategic buyer, consolidating the market with the proceeds of the sale in 2018. With Jan's influence, the company embarked on a new chapter, pivoting to build the preferred home for mission-critical businesses across the old continent. Over the last five years, they have been on an absolute tear, having founded four distinct acquisition platforms that collectively acquired around 60 operating companies, demonstrated the ability to build a prolific M&A machine, while also improving the operations of the companies they acquire. Virtually every company in the world today is, on some level, thinking about AI in terms of threats, opportunities, and implications for their business. Perhaps nowhere is that discourse more animated right now than in the software industry. And as you'll hear from Jan, AI's potential to be a transformative force driving not only efficiencies, but also TAM expansion and most importantly, tangible customer value, is already evident throughout their business. We hope you enjoy class today with our good friend and Chapter CEO, Jan Mohr.

What keeps Atlanta's Council 44 reps awake at night? Two things: educating a largely new pilot group before Section 6 and stopping off-book deal-making with Scheduling that erodes unity and pay protections. In this candid roundtable, Captain Tony Rohloff, Captain Shawn Kellett, and First Officer Maggie Eickhoff explain why the Contract History and Contract Comparison aren't “homework” - they're essential to a strong opener - and how your narrative responses in the contract survey directly shape MEC direction and Negotiating Committee priorities. We break down the coverage ladder, why making deals for yourself cuts the line for everyone else, and how mentoring in the cockpit can curb bad habits before they spread. You'll also hear a clear playbook for engagement: where to find surveys and polling, how resolutions flow into the “Green Book” for negotiations, and why participation matters even when things feel good on the line. We close with base-level ways to plug in and a reminder that unity isn't a slogan; it's a series of small, contract-compliant choices we make every day.
