Enterprise Ireland offers a programme of trade missions and events which support the goal of securing high-level market access for companies based in Ireland who are aiming to grow business overseas and increase domestic employment.

In accordance with the 2019 trade mission programme, my colleague, Mr Pat Breen, T.D., Minister of State for Trade, Employment, Business, EU Digital Single Market and Data Protection, will lead a trade mission to Madrid on 2 and 3 October 2019. Twenty Irish companies will accompany the Minister on the mission. Minister Breen will also hold meetings with his Spanish counterpart to discuss trade related issues during the mission.
