Lighthouse AI Consulting helps life science and lab technology companies adopt AI faster, without sacrificing scientific accuracy, compliance, or credibility.
The name Lighthouse Consulting takes its inspiration from the lighthouse that stands on Fastnet Rock off the southwest coast of Ireland. For over a century, it has guided ships safely through some of the most challenging waters in the North Atlantic.
That's the idea behind Lighthouse AI Consulting. I shine a light on AI and help leaders in life science and lab technology see the best path forward towards adoption. No hype, no confusion, just clear, practical guidance grounded in real scientific understanding.
Based in Ireland and serving clients worldwide, Lighthouse AI Consulting brings deep domain expertise to every engagement, whether you're across the road or across the ocean.

We asked Colm to turn a customer interview into an article, but he delivered a polished success story with a much more engaging style. He understood our business objectives and provided professional suggestions on gated content SEO, plus a full communications package including emails and social posts. Overall, I'm very satisfied."
"Colm's AI Marketing Roadmap showed me exactly how AI could help with competitor research, audience insights, and creating content quickly. He asked great questions to make sure the roadmap matched what I needed, and gave me a clear plan with practical tools I could use straight away. I'd recommend this to any life science marketer who feels stuck or overwhelmed by AI."
"I was blown away by how comprehensive and tailored Colm's AI Roadmap service is. He broke the process down into bite-size steps and spoke directly to my pain points. I'd recommend it to any life science marketer who wants to use AI to work smarter, not harder."

I'm a former research scientist with a B.Sc. and Ph.D. in chemistry and materials science, and over 10 years working in science labs. I've used the instruments, run the experiments, and sat through the purchasing decisions, so I know the world your buyers live in.
Since 2015, I've been writing and strategising for major life science brands including Hitachi High-Tech, Thermo Fisher, Zeiss, and Leica Microsystems. Now I help life science companies adopt AI with confidence, building workflows, training teams, and designing strategies rooted in real scientific understanding.
That combination of lab credibility, marketing experience, and AI expertise is rare. With me, you get someone who won't need a briefing on your science, and who can translate that into AI systems your team will actually trust and use.
Your competitors are experimenting. Your team should be implementing.
