Investing in Ireland: Issue 62

Happy St. Patrick's weekend and welcome to the latest edition of PwC’s newsletter on foreign direct investment (“FDI”) in Ireland.

The strength and resilience of the FDI sector in Ireland is reflected once again in the Irish jobs and investments announced since our previous edition in January (see page 2). 

IDA Ireland’s latest strategy, "Adapt Intelligently: A Strategy for Sustainable Growth and Innovation, 2025-29" promises to further solidify Ireland’s position as a global leader in FDI. This new five-year plan builds on Ireland's impressive track record over many years of transforming its economy through strategic investments and innovation (see page 3).

As a committed member of the European Union since 1973, Ireland has transformed its economy from one reliant on agriculture to a thriving hub for high-tech manufacturing and services industries and global exports (see page 5). 

Finally, we highlight some recent PwC publications and podcasts on topical issues in the FDI space (see page 6) and summarise Ireland’s strong ranking in a number of key areas for FDI investors (see page 8). 

Please do not hesitate to contact myself, any member of our team, or your usual PwC Ireland contact at any stage. We would be happy to tell you more about the topics raised in this issue or to include any interested parties on our mailing list.
