Born on the day before St. Patrick’s Day in County Sligo, Malcolm O’Hagan is a proud Irishman, through and through.

To create a brighter future for generations to come, we all need to be able to answer some difficult questions.

Science provides a way of working out these answers.

That is why the Irish American Partnership is proud to be an original supporter of ESB Science Blast, delivered by the Royal Dublin Society (RDS). The primary school program aims to harness the natural curiosity within young people to solve the problems of tomorrow by inviting children to investigate the science behind simple questions that interest them, such as how are rainbows made, or how does sound move around?

With three fairs in Dublin, Limerick, and Belfast annually, ESB Science Blast equips students with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in the future through engagement in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM). The 2020 Fair, which took place prior to the onset of COVID-19 in early March, was the best yet, engaging over 12,000 children “Without the involvement of the from over 500 primary schools.
