The 11th annual I Wish Showcase, held today at the RDS in Dublin, saw 4,000 female students gather to be inspired to pursue a career in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Maths (STEM). Today's event - the largest I Wish Showcase to date - was officially opened by Taoiseach, Micheál Martin. Speaking ahead of the event, the Taoiseach said: "I'm delighted to attend today's event, with 4,000 brilliant young minds gathering under one roof, ready to reimagine the world through STEM. I Wish proves that with opportunity, role models and determination, there are no limits to what girls can achieve - breaking barriers, shattering stereotypes, and building a brighter, more inclusive future for all." With 45% of girls citing a lack of access to female role models as a barrier to STEM careers according to a recent I Wish survey, 46 speakers engaged directly with students at the all-island event, showcasing the power of visible role models in shaping aspirations and breaking barriers. Among them were Olympic sprint star Phil Healy; Olympic rower Zoe Hyde; Olympic relay star and Deloitte's Strategic Project Lead, Claire Dunne (née Bergin); and international rally driver Aoife Rafferty, who shared their journeys of perseverance, ambition and success. This year's event also features the largest-ever exhibition hall, with over 30 exhibitors from leading Irish and global companies and organisations showcasing exciting STEM career opportunities. Highlights included the Sport Innovation Hub in collaboration with Sport Ireland's HER Moves campaign, where students explored how technology is transforming sports through interactive activities like rowing machines, reaction boards and jersey design stations. The Food Science Hub, led by Carbery, Kerry Group and Dawn Meats, demonstrated STEM's impact on the food industry with machine learning tools, cheese-making tasks and problem-solving games. Engineering and construction activities range from a Giant Jenga game with Jones Engineering to mini-golf with Regeneron, alongside insights from companies such as Sisk, Crown and Dornan on the evolution of careers in construction. Students also discovered the role of STEM in business and innovation with IDA Ireland and Enterprise Ireland. Adding to the excitement, the Podcast Hub, in collaboration with Virgin Media, allowed students to record live podcasts, with a select few invited to visit the studio post-event to record their own. I Wish co-founder Caroline O'Driscoll highlighted the significance of providing access to inspiring role models, stating: "The findings from our most recent annual survey report make it clear that while progress has been made, systemic barriers persist, preventing too many young girls from seeing STEM as a viable career path. Collectively, we must give real choices to girls and ensure that they have every opportunity to take their place in the economies of tomorrow. "At our Showcase, over 4,000 teenage girls get the opportunity to listen to the lived journeys of some amazing female trailblazers. This in turn allows them to see what a career in STEM is truly like, understand the variety of careers and pathways available and the positive impact that STEM has on our world." I Wish, a multi-award-winning programme showcasing the power of STEM to female students in Ireland and across the globe, has held its renowned annual Showcase since 2015, engaging with over 65,000 students in this time, hosting over 1,000 speakers, and partnering with over 130 industry leaders. I Wish co-founder, Gillian Keating extended her thanks to the leaders in STEM from pharmaceutical, technology, food, sports and engineering sectors taking part in the event: "Each year it is magical to watch the ambitions of young girls from across the country expanding in front of our very eyes as they take in all that they can be through careers in STEM. We're so grateful to our partners, both multinational and indigenous, who take part in the showcase demonstrating t...

Lack of awareness around the opportunities STEM holds for their future careers is students' number one barrier to entry into the industry. This is according to a survey of more than 150 second-level students. Respondents to the STEM South West survey cited their top three possible reasons for not pursuing or considering a career in STEM: Lack of Knowledge About STEM Careers - 29% Perception of Difficulty - 21% Uncertainty About Ability to Handle STEM Subjects - 20% The experts at STEM South West, an industry-led STEM cluster which promotes and nurtures STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) throughout the South West region of Ireland, say these insights underline the need for better communication around STEM opportunities and better support systems to build confidence and engagement among students. Mary Good, Chair of STEM South West, spoke of the significance of empowering the next generation, "Ireland is at a pivotal moment in ensuring its place as a global leader in tech, pharma, MedTech, engineering, and biosciences. For students, STEM is not just a pathway to incredible careers but a chance to contribute to solving the world's most urgent problems - from healthcare and climate change to housing and energy. By inspiring and equipping today's students with the skills to innovate and lead, we can secure a brighter future for all. Ireland's current STEM industry base and the companies that choose to locate here depend on a robust talent pipeline. Together, we must ensure our students are on board. We must make students aware of the vast possibilities that lie ahead if they choose a career in STEM. The pathways available are diverse and abundant, ranging from cutting-edge research in artificial intelligence and robotics to groundbreaking work in healthcare and environmental science. By highlighting these opportunities, we can inspire students to envision themselves as the innovators and problem-solvers of tomorrow." STEM Education: The Key to Ireland's Future Success To maintain its position as a global hub for innovation, STEM Southwest estimates that at least 35% of Ireland's 964,000 primary and secondary students will need to pursue STEM education. Current participation trends at the third level show approximately 30% of students studying STEM, with female participation growing steadily at 40% of STEM students. Ms. Good concluded, "Educating students about the myriads of career options in STEM not only broadens their horizons but also equips them with the knowledge and confidence to pursue these fields. Our goal is to ensure that every student understands the potential impact they can have on the world through a STEM career and to provide them with the support and resources they need to succeed."
Carlos Romero believes that mentors hold the key for STEM education. His own story involved growing into success based on a foundation of the importance of education by his parents and the legacy of high achievement by his siblings.
