This is the vision for the Dublin digital media district. It will seek to build on the strengths of existing players in the industry and co-ordinate their efforts to foster the rapid growth of a high value-added media sector. The decision of the MIT MediaLab to locate in Dublin will greatly enhance the international profile of the industry in the city and accelerate the development of this sector. This independent research institute will focus on cutting-edge, Internet and e-commerce applications. The district will provide access to state of the art digital production and post-production facilities as well as incubation centres and business services. It will have a leading edge telecommunications infrastructure to support high bandwidth, web-based services, such as digital music delivery, e-cinema and web-casting. It will have high bandwidth connections to other clusters of indigenous media companies, such as those envisaged for the Webworks in Galway and Cork.
