IDA Ireland’s Regional Property Programme aims to ensure the supply of land, buildings and infrastructure in regional locations to meet the needs of current and prospective clients of the IDA, Enterprise Ireland and Local Enterprise Offices and is a significant contributor to regional economic development and job creation. In this regard, the Kilbarry Business & Technology Park is one of several IDA Ireland business parks that have supported the growth of employment and investment to Cork and the South-West Region. The IDA, has, however, agreed terms to transfer ownership of a portion of lands comprising c.40 hectares at the north of the IDA Business & Technology Park at Kilbarry to the Land Development Agency. This proposed sale is subject to contract, and the Land Development Agency is currently undertaking due diligence in respect of these lands.
