I am aware that the Digital Hub Development Agency, DHDA, is running a developer competition to develop the hub site. I am awaiting a recommendation from the board of DHDA relating to that competition. In advance of that recommendation it would not be proper for me to comment on the alternatives available in the hub to secure future development in the area.

With regard to its other ongoing activities, the Digital Hub has been successful to date in building up a cluster of digital media companies and has embarked on extensive educational and community activities in the Liberties area of Dublin.
