About our Speaker, HE Ambassador Adrian O'Neill
After graduating from TCD (B.A. Mod. Honours) in 1983, Adrian O’Neill entered the world of international diplomacy, first at the Irish Embassy in Madrid. Just a decade later, he was promoted from Vice Consul in Boston USA to First Secretary at the Washington DC Embassy.

Amongst other posts, he has been Secretary General to former Irish President Mary McAleese and current President Michael D. Higgins and Second Secretary General, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (Ireland, UK and Americas Division).

Taking up his diplomatic duties in such a crucial period in both countries’ futures, he is in a unique position to provide an insight into this developing drama.
