Per-item analysis
Dublin
Dublin is the #50 metro by economic size ($249bn) in the panel and ranks #70/162 on absolute Metro Power and #37/162 on per-capita intensity. Its strongest pillar is Infrastructure (80.8, Leading); no single pillar is a binding weakness. Locally it runs below the Ireland national average (MCC 54.2 vs CC 62.2).
Strengths
- Infrastructure (80.8, Leading) — the physical and digital rails to run AI at scale are in place.
- Talent (52.7, Strong) — a deep talent pool — the scarcest input to building AI.
- Capital (42.4, Strong) — abundant capital flowing into building cognitive infrastructure.
Risk factors
- No acute structural gaps stand out across the metro pillars.
