Last month, not only did we announce that DrupalCon is coming to Dublin in 2016, but five more of our developers became Acquia-certified, myself included!

Céad míle fáilte go Baile Átha Cliath. DrupalCon is coming to Dublin. Yes, you read that right, DrupalCon 2016 will be in Dublin, and we at Annertech can't wait to see you there.

As part of our content strategy, we've put a lot of effort into our blog over the past year. Our blog is a weekly post of news about a recent project we have worked on, some new skills we'd like to share with others, or some thoughts we have on an aspect of web development.

Last week I had the privilege of attending the Digital Preservation for the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (DPASSH) conference in Dublin. There were two full days of all manner of topics related to digital preservation as well as the highlight of the conference - the official launch of the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI).

We spent a number of weeks recently training the Glanbia in-house developers on Drupal best practices, so that they would be self-sufficient in their choice to adopt Drupal as their preferred CMS. The first website their team built was the Glanbia Foodscapes Nutrition website, which showcases their products to their worldwide client base.

We were delighted to be in the company of a huge number of esteemed people in the field of implementation science at the launch of the European Implementation Collaborative (EIC) and its inauguration into the Global Implementation Collaborative yesterday evening.

This post covers the challenges of managing a distributed team and some of the things you should be aware of. Distributed working is not for everyone, but works great for us.

The European Implementation Collaborative engages a broad range of individual and organisational stakeholders in the field of implementation science. Annertech were very privileged recently to be contracted to "implement" the CMS for their flagship website.

Drupal Open Days - the largest meeting of Drupal developers, users, and enthusiasts in Ireland - is fast approaching. This year is looking like it's going to be the biggest and best one yet.

We love to share our knowledge. At every Drupal camp and Drupal Open Days in Ireland (not to mention most DrupalCons and DevDays internationally) we give presentations. This year we are giving three talks at Drupal Open Days Ireland 2015. Here's what we'll talk about:

Glanbia opened their new "hi spec infant formula" plant in Bellview, Kilkenny in early March. To coincide with it, we were tasked with building the website for Glanbia Ingredients Ireland. This new website showcases the range of products that Glanbia produce.
