🌍 This week, some of the Tom Phillips + Associates management team had the opportunity to attend the Irish Planning Institute Annual Planning Conference 2025 in the beautiful Salthill, Galway City! 🌟 We were fortunate to experience some wonderful weather throughout the event, adding to the already vibrant atmosphere of the conference. The presentations were incredibly insightful, offering valuable perspectives on the future of planning in Ireland and beyond. The discussions were thought-provoking, and we are leaving with plenty of ideas and inspiration to drive our work forward. Gavin Lawlor, Director at TPA and President of the IPI noted in his opening address; “We regularly hear from the political system - particularly at national level - that planning - and by extension planners - is a problem and the source of all our housing and infrastructure issues. I don't believe that, I believe that planners solve problems, not create them." A big thank you to the Irish Planning Institute for hosting such a well-organised event, and to all the speakers and attendees for making it a truly engaging experience. Looking forward to applying all the knowledge gained and continuing to be a part of such a forward-thinking industry. 🌱 #Planning #IrishPlanningInstitute #TPA #Salthill #Galway #Networking #ContinuousLearning #UrbanPlanning #FutureOfPlanning #PlanningForTheFuture
