The INAM 2024 took place in Galway on August 29th and 30th. The meeting showcased the wide range of scientific topics that astronomers all across Ireland are working on. We saw an exciting program with 35 invited and contributed talks as well as more than 20 posters with a total number of 80 participants. With the recent 6 year anniversary of the Republic of Ireland joining the European Southern Observatory we heard talks in a special ESO session. ESOs current and future facilities were highlighted by Bruno Leibundgut the current program scientist for the Very Large Telescope in the Chilean Atacama desert. Great craic was had during the public talk of Leo Enright, highlighting astronomical science in Ireland from Newgrange to the Moon and the following night out in the pub in town. With an unusually collaborative sunny weather streak, Galway presented itself from its best side for a successful INAM. The INAM was organized and run with the help of the amazing undergrad students from the Astronomy Student Society in Galway.
