About us

For almost 290 years the RDS has responded to the needs and priorities of Ireland, addressing gaps in the development of our culture and economy and have helped shape the country. The RDS is focused on a long-term vision for Ireland and five key areas underpin our work: agriculture, the arts, enterprise, equestrianism and science. The RDS harnesses people’s energy and ideas, we identify the needs within each area and bring momentum and scale to fulfil those needs. Through this, we help develop and nurture long-lasting positive impact in Irish society.
