For generations, the Boyle family has farmed Bencroy Mountain in Co. Leitrim.

Now Matthew, his father Andrew , and Fred 🐕, are helping bring its blanket bog back to health through the EU-funded WaterLANDS project. Protecting the mountain for generations to come. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

At Dublin City University this week to talk about EU Inc. and what it can do for Europe’s founders 🇪🇺

Imagine setting up a company once and growing it across the whole Single Market, with one simple, digital set of rules.

As Member States have recently agreed on their position, we’re entering the final stretch towards agreement by the end of the year 🏁 The key now is to keep the ambition, so that EU Inc. makes a real difference for businesses and for Europe’s competitiveness.

Thank you to the Irish Presidency and DCU for hosting 🙏 by @euireland

A mountain shaped by farming, mining and now restoration. #EuropesBudget

A recap from my mission to Dublin 🇮🇪 🇪🇺 by @euireland

Go Circular is going to school! ♻️🇪🇺

What a brilliant morning at Dominican College in Dublin, where Commissioner @jessikaroswall officially launched Go Circular Goes to School, and even tried her hand at camogie! ☘️

Together with The Rediscovery Centre, we’re bringing free circular economy workshops to more than 30 schools across Ireland. A lovely start to an exciting new chapter! #GoCircularEU by @euireland

Inspiring days in Dublin 🇮🇪

As always, I received a very warm welcome from my ministerial colleagues, Minister O’Brien and Minister Heydon. It was a pleasure to join them at the Global Bioeconomy Summit. I also launched the Bio-based Europe Alliance — an important step towards strengthening cooperation and accelerating the transition to a circular, resilient bioeconomy.

It was truly a visit full of launches! I had the great honour of visiting Dominican College in Dublin to kick off the ”Go Circular Goes to School” initiative, inspiring the next generation to embrace circular thinking and sustainable practices.

I also had the opportunity to do site visits.

First, I visited the Rediscovery Centre — Ireland’s National Centre for the Circular Economy — to see its reuse and repair workshops in action. From furniture and bicycles to paint and fashion, the centre demonstrates how circular skills can turn waste into valuable resources and create new opportunities.

Second visit went to ReFarm, an inspiring initiative that channels private and (some) public funding directly to farmers to support nature-friendly measures. From wildlife ponds and hedgerows to small woodlands and species-rich grasslands. It was great to see how businesses can contribute to these projects while documenting their environmental impact. And it was great to see the engagement and enthusiasm of farmers (over)delivering on such measures. Their farm is not only delivering ecosystem services but also growing as a business.

It was a pleasure of being part of a roundtable discussion with Hometree philanthropic and corporate investors. Hometree is charity that does nature restauration via tree planting. Thank you for the intresting discussions!

From European cooperation and nature restoration to education and practical circular solutions, these inspiring visits show what we can achieve when we work together towards a more sustainable future. by @euireland

🇮🇪 1st in the EU for reading, 3rd for science and 4th for mathematics!

Ireland is one of Europe’s top performers in education, according to PISA.

In Dublin, I visited Scoil Mhuire Gan Smál, a primary school supporting children from disadvantaged communities.

From reading and mathematics to AI and digital literacy, I saw how dedicated teachers and support staff help every child develop the skills they need for the future.

Every child deserves strong foundations, regardless of their background.

This is at the heart of the European Education and Skills Package I will present in November: stronger foundational skills, better-supported teachers and technology that improves learning.

Investing in children today means building a stronger Europe tomorrow. by @euireland

The future of AI is taking shape. Europe has a crucial role to play 🇪🇺

Great discussions at the International AI Summit in Dublin, where I delivered the closing keynote on building a trusted digital economy.

From AI innovation to helping businesses scale and protecting consumers, plenty to discuss with Meta, Google, Vodafone, TikTok and the Children’s Rights Alliance.

The future of AI must be innovative, competitive and safe for everyone.

Because trust fuels innovation 🚀 by @euireland
