Asiera Conference 2026 early bird registration closes tomorrow, 1st September at midnight.

We’re delighted to announce our new name and brand, Asiera, which is the merging of HEAnet and EduCampus. Asiera stands for Advancing Services for Irish Education, Research and Academia – a name that reflects our shared ambition to connect, enable and empower Ireland’s education and research community. The merger, which was completed on the 31st of December 2025, marks a new chapter in our shared journey. By uniting the strengths of HEAnet and EduCampus, we are building an end-to-end digital ecosystem for Irish education, one that connects, enables, and empowers learners and institutions to thrive in an increasingly digital world. As Asiera, we form a single, stronger organisation dedicated to delivering ICT shared services that empower Ireland’s education and research sector at every level. As a leading provider of high-speed internet connectivity and ICT shared services for the education and research community in Ireland, we deliver a robust digital infrastructure that underpins the teaching, learning, research, and administrative functions of schools, colleges, and universities across the country. We have combined our expertise and resources to ensure every learner, educator, and researcher has seamless access to world-class technologies and services. Every day, our national education and research network supports more than 1.3 million students and researchers and over 175,000 staff across Ireland’s schools, ETBs, and higher education institutions – more than 1.5 million people in total. In addition, we provide business critical management information systems to over 140,000 students and 20,000 staff across Ireland’s universities, technological universities, institutes of technology, and colleges.
