IDA Ireland has been the driving force behind attracting foreign direct investment into Ireland for over 75 years.
With a strong reputation for supporting global companies in establishing and expanding their operations, IDA Ireland has made Ireland a leading destination for investment in a diverse range of sectors.
- Will a complex interplay of economic, geopolitical and policy dynamics change the trajectory of FDI investments in the years ahead?
- In what direction will FDI go in 2025?
- How will the many unknowns in the investment environment of the U.S., the largest destination and source market for FDI, impact investment decisions?
Working with over 1,900 multinational companies from various sectors and industries that have chosen to invest in Ireland, IDA Ireland is well-versed in the complexities of the global FDI environment.
Our guest speaker, IDA Ireland’s CEO, Michael Lohan, will outline the organisation’s plans for the years ahead in the face of a changing operating landscape.
