ConnectIreland
IIBN would like to welcome our new partner ConnectIreland. ConnectIreland was appointed by IDA Ireland to deliver the Succeed in Ireland initiative which is part of the Irish Government’s 2012 Action Plan for Jobs. Launched on March 8, 2012 by An Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, over 100 internationally expanding companies were introduced by Connectors to the program during the first two months of operations.
If you introduce the ConnectIreland team to a senior decision maker in a company that is expanding internationally, you will receive a financial reward from the Irish Government – providing that company establishes operations and creates jobs in Ireland.
