IDA Ireland’s performance in 2017 resulted in the third consecutive year of strong growth under the Agency's current Strategy. By the end of last year, total employment in the Agency's client companies stood at 210,443. Furthermore there are now over 122,000 people employed across 649 firms in IDA client companies outside of Dublin. I look forward to working closely with the Agency and across Government to grow those numbers further in 2018.

The following table provides a breakdown of employment in IDA Ireland client companies from 2013 to 2017.
