Ms Joanna Murphy:

Our connector spread is everywhere. We have connectors in parts of the world I have not even heard of. In terms of our company success, we are primarily, but not exclusively, talking about North America. We had an announcement of seven or 15 jobs this week by a Japanese company called SMK. It is small, sustainable and succinct, exactly what is needed.

In terms of the relationship with IDA Ireland, it is delighted to work with us on projects of any size. There is no breakdown of how many jobs it or we work on. We bring to the table things it did not know about. If it is a small project, it is better that ConnectIreland sees it through to the end, but very often, such as the case with Pepper, we would deal with larger companies. There is nothing to preclude us from that. As we work in partnership with IDA Ireland, we cultivate the leads together, which gives Ireland the very best chance of delivering success in a professional manner.
