Ahead of the publication of the Business Post's annual Connected 100 list this week, Charlie is joined by venture capitalist and former founder DC Cahalane to discuss how Ireland's tech ecosystem is actually faring.

The pair touch on what is being done right, where Irish tech is falling short and how hesitation in embracing AI could result in the country losing out.

Business Post reporter Alice O'Leary also joins Charlie to dissect the biggest tech stories of the week, including Apple's tax bill, Mark Zuckerberg's Irish castle and the latest on Anthropic's blockbuster IPO.

Landing every Wednesday morning, the Business Post Connected Podcast is a weekly dive into the stories dominating the world of tech hosted by Charlie Taylor.
