South East Technological University has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with KIMO International at Ferrycarrig in Wexford. Founded in Denmark in 1990, KIMO ('Kommunernes International Miljøorganisation' or 'Local Authorities International Environmental Organisation') is a network of local governments with over 75 member municipalities across nine countries. The organisation strives to promote healthy seas, clean beaches, and thriving coastal communities. SETU and KIMO have come together to collaboratively address the challenges faced by our marine environment. Together, they will develop research initiatives to increase knowledge of the effects of environmental stresses and use educational programmes to increase awareness and understanding, and to explore measures to mitigate harmful effects. Speaking about the collaboration, Captain Phil Murphy, SETU's Project Manager in Offshore Wind, said, "At SETU, we are delighted to partner with KIMO to provide research and academic support across the network of European Coastal Municipalities. We very much look forward to collaborating on a wide range of marine environmental issues." "Our oceans regulate climate, absorb carbon, and support biodiversity, food security, and livelihoods, while coastal ecosystems protect shorelines and communities. Marine environments face growing threats including PFAS, plastic, and microfiber pollution, lost shipping containers and ocean acidification, all of which endanger ecosystems, coastal communities and the long-term health of our seas," Capt. Murphy outlined. "SETU's partnership with KIMO enables us to bring together academic experts on the marine environment in support of our colleagues in Ireland and globally to improve the environmental quality of our oceans and coastal waters," he concluded. Preben Friis-Hauge, President of KIMO International, said: "KIMO is delighted to formalise this partnership with South East Technological University. Our member municipalities are on the front line of marine environmental challenges, and this collaboration will strengthen the vital link between local action and academic expertise. As part of KIMO's new strategy, contributing to knowledge and evidence-generation on the causes and impacts of marine pollution is a key priority. This Memorandum of Understanding represents an important first step in mobilising shared research, education and advocacy to achieve healthier seas and more resilient coastal communities across Europe."

South East Technological University's (SETU) sixth annual Women in Technology event will bring together role models from industry and academia to challenge perceptions of technology and encourage more young women to consider careers in the sector. The event at SETU Arena in Waterford, on Thursday, 12 March, aims to grow young women's understanding of technology and demonstrate the career paths open to them in computing. Building on the success of last year's event, which welcomed over 1,000 female students from Cork, Tipperary, Kilkenny, Wexford, and Waterford, this year's programme promises to be more engaging than ever. Attendees will hear from inspirational keynote speakers who are leading the way in technology. These include Phil Healy, a two-time Irish Olympian who has successfully combined elite sport with a career as a Software Developer at Sun Life, and Likhitha Gaddi, a Software Engineer at Google. Alongside the keynote talks, the event, sponsored by Sun Life, Google, Security Risk Advisors and Nearform, will feature exhibition stands from some of the region's largest technology companies. Students will have the opportunity to interact directly with professionals working in technology, engineering, ICT, and software development, gaining insight into real-world career pathways. Amanda Freeman-Gater, Assistant Head of the Computing and Mathematics Department at SETU, believes that encouraging more women into technology is essential for the future of the sector. "The technology industry needs more women studying the wide range of technological programmes available, including those at SETU," said Ms Freeman-Gater, "Graduates can go on to build careers in dynamic technical roles that offer flexibility and the chance to work collaboratively on innovative ideas, services, and products." While there has been a recent shortfall in the number of women entering technology fields, this was not always the case, she adds. "Ada Lovelace is widely recognised as the world's first computer programmer. We must now focus on developing the next generation of female tech talent to create a more balanced and inclusive workforce. Women make up half the world's population, so it is only logical they should make up half the workforce in technology." SETU's Women in Technology event is open to second-level and third-level female students and teachers. The event will feature exhibitions, technology demonstrations, industry speakers, and information on SETU's wide range of third-level programmes, which provide pathways to exciting and rewarding careers in technology. Schools that register for SETU's Women in Technology event at SETU | Women in Technology 2026 will be entered into a draw to win a free bus to the event, while attendees will also be in with a chance to win one of six laptops.
