Irish IT and cybersecurity provider Landmark Technologies is partnering with Microsoft on a series of events aimed at helping businesses adopt artificial intelligence while managing the security risks associated with the technology.

The Secure Copilot Enablement sessions will give senior business and technology leaders practical guidance on deploying Microsoft Copilot and other AI capabilities within their organisations.

Landmark Technologies is headquartered in Dublin and provides IT and cybersecurity services to Irish businesses; its turnover and EBITDA are not publicly available. The free, in-person workshops will take place at Microsoft Ireland's campus in South County Business Park, Dublin 18, with the first session scheduled for September 22, followed by further events on October 15, November 12 and December 10, running from 10am to 1pm.

Attendees will have the opportunity to explore Microsoft's AI capabilities in person and gain practical insights into implementation, responsible AI adoption and the latest developments across Microsoft's technology portfolio. Landmark will additionally host four Microsoft-focused webinars, extending access to guidance on how businesses can use the technology to improve operations and outcomes.

Ken Kelleher, Managing Director of Landmark Technologies, said: "AI has become a major focus for us at Landmark because we see the value it can deliver. By bringing our knowledge and expertise together with Microsoft, these sessions will help Irish businesses understand how they can capitalise on that potential effectively and securely." He added that the partnership represented an opportunity to help Irish companies move beyond the hype around AI and understand its practical applications.

The structural driver is the growing gap between enterprise AI ambition and secure deployment capability, which is pushing vendors to pair platform access with hands-on implementation guidance rather than relying on self-service rollout.

For the sector, this reflects a broader shift among Irish technology providers toward structured, in-person enablement programmes as businesses move past AI experimentation and demand practical, security-conscious paths to deployment.
