This morning.
Tramway House, Dartry Road, Darty, Dublin 6
A quick nosey around the Web Summit HQ as its controversial CEO and Founder Paddy Cosgrave (pics 2 and 3) announced the hiring of 40 Trinity grads employees “across a range of roles over the next 6 months for their Dublin HQ and new roles in San Francisco and Hong Kong”.
But are they happy?
Meanwhile…
We have a great working relationship with the Government under Leo Varadkar. I was at the U2 gig with him. There are lots of positive things coming from it.”

Absolute silly pants, I thought he ran off to Portugal
The Geek shall inherit the earth.
Any chance of a job Paddy? I’ll do the night shift. Better clear that with Leo first though
He’s likely to be appointed to the Senate after he sells Websummit.
“I was at the U2 gig with him”
Sure isn’t it grand for him all the same.
At a U2 gig in between Leo and Paddy. Could there be anything worse?
Good point, dumb and dumber.
Fake Personality and Faker Personality is how I might see that… coupling
Networking is important in business – he’s just being smart. Your comment is depressing and resentful.
There is no product or service with them. Not far off a pyramid scheme. They are selling hope to sellers.
Kinda like the gospels according to KPMG Ezy eccentra etc ….what do they provide???
He runs a convention, a successful one.
Guys why do we hate Paddy so much again? I’ve forgotten.
he’s a bit of a spoofer. and has a massive sense of entitlement. not seen as sincere.
Well that’s just nit-picking, innit.
and he has nits
Nailed it.
Very succinct and non-hyperbolic, Harry.
Was there something about his rock the vote thing, where he was allegedly pretending to be other people to hype the thing, a la Trump and his two fake publicists
He did well and stood up to crap Irish service?
If you ever actually attended one of his Web Summit scams, you wouldnt accuse him of standing up to crap Irish Service.
An absolute snake oil salesman.

Has he abandoned his anti-corruption crusade already?
