Introducing Ireland
A luscious green island, famous for its rolling hills and picturesque seascapes. Geographically, Ireland lies at the western edge of Europe but economically, this entrepreneurial powerhouse is anchored at the centre of technological development and research.
An entrepreneurial paradise on an Emerald Isle
From Europe’s largest green space to the longest defined coastal touring route in the world, Ireland is a country brimming with adventure, beauty, and innovation.
Ireland’s economy is the fastest growing in the Eurozone and is the 6th most competitive economy in the world. Subsequently, Ireland has been named the best country in the world for attracting high-value foreign direct investment for 6 consecutive years. Investing is straightforward and the tax system favours entrepreneurial business owners.
Ireland is home to many of the world’s leading technology companies, most notably Google, Intel, Facebook and Twitter.
The residency programme offers fantastic health and lifestyle benefits for investors and their families. Irish universities are renowned for their research, particularly in mathematics and chemistry where they are amongst the best in the world. A temperate climate, state of the art healthcare and a rich culture make Ireland a very fulfilling place to live, work and thrive.
English is an official language and often takes precedence over Irish. All government forms and documents are produced in English, as well as road signs, restaurant menus, and other important information.
