Join the next Business Breakfast at Queen's Business School, exploring investment decisions around AI adoption for organisational leaders.
About this Event

Join us on Wednesday 3 June 2026 at 8:30am at Queen’s Business School for a timely and thought-provoking breakfast event exploring the AI adoption dilemma.

Leading financial researcher William Quinn will share his investigations into financial bubbles to frame the conversation around AI adoption, and how business leaders might draw on historical patterns to make investment decisions around AI.

What lessons can current leaders learn from to make evidence‑based decisions about AI adoption in organisations today? How do you spot the difference between a transformative investment and the early stages of a costly bubble, before significant resources are at stake?

Hear from a panel of experts who will unpack the evolving AI adoption conversation:

  • Dr William Quinn – Financial historian, Queen's Business School
  • Roy Kane - VP of Transformation at Almac Clinical Services
  • Barry Smyth - CEO at MCS Group
  • Panellist tbc.

Moderator: QBS Director of Business Engagement, Julie McCandless

The morning will also offer opportunities for networking and knowledge-sharing by bringing together diverse voices from across the business and academic communities.



Please note: whilst public car parking is available, it is extremely limited and offered on a first come - first served basis.
