Adam J. Shaw, MRICS, MAIQS — USA Lead, Infrastructure & Capital Projects, Accenture, speaking in Dublin, December 2025.

Watch Adam J. Shaw of Accenture explain how a mega-project like MetroLink doesn't just build infrastructure — it builds people. He argues that intentional workforce policy on projects like this can turn inexperienced hires into subject matter experts over the life of the programme, multiplying the benefit far beyond the physical build.

"The force multiplier of the
benefits of a mega project."

Seán Fay, Founder, #WholeVillageHiring — an immigrant to Ireland and disability advocate, finding his tribe took lots of work.

Watch founder Seán Fay share advice that shaped #WVH's approach from the start — given to him by Ben Verwaayen, former CEO of BT, after a fellow Irish entrepreneur made the introduction. The counterintuitive lesson: when you're building something new, your competitors aren't just rivals — they're potential collaborators.

"Seek out your competitors
and collaborate with them."
